About this product

Product Information

Excerpt from Memorias de un Setenton, Natural y Vecine de Madrid: Con Notas y Adiciones Pero, una vez resenados aquellos, y llegando fatal mente a otro periodo mas terrible y lastimoso, cual fue el de la sangrienta y feroz reaccion absolutista, que lanzo a la nacion en todos los horrores de la sana politica, de las venganzas personales, de la persecucion contra el saber y el patriotismo, mi conciencia literaria y mi pluma nada agresiva se rehusan a seguir por este camino y a trazar un cuadro repugnante, ante el cual (segun la frase, mas expresiva que culta, de mi amigo el ilustre Donoso Cor tes) aparto la vista con horror y el estomago con asco. - Porque, a decir verdad, que desenfado, que humoris mo (y perdoneme nuestra Real Academia esta palabra) cabe ante situacion tan violenta; ante la perspectiva del patibulo casi permanente; ante la sana y la violencia de las malas pasiones suscitadas contra una sociedad entera; ante el embrutecimiento de las turbas; ante la proscrip cion de las ideas generosas y levantadas; ante las comi siones militares; ante los desafueros politicos de los Cha perones, herreros-prieto y Recachos, que reprodujeron entre nosotros, aunque en sentido inverso, el Comite de Salud publica y el Tribunal reeolucionario de 1793? Francamente, yo no veo ninguno; y dado este conflicto, cumpleme abrir un parentesis de algunos anos en esta parte de mi narracion, tornandola a su cauce natural, que, como ya queda repetido, es el mas halagueno cam po de la vida social y la progresiva marcha de su cultura en todas sus manifestacmnes, y muy particularmente en el progreso literario y civilizador de Ja epoca, a cuyos dos objetos dedique exclusivamente mi vida entera; sin perder de vista, empero, aunque en segundo termino, el giro de los sucesos politicos, que tanta influencia ejercie ron en el gran desarrollo de la vida moderna.
