In 'From Empire to Decline', Henry Kamen explores the myths that have shaped modern Spain. Through in-depth analysis, Kamen unravels the historical assumptions that have influenced Spanish identity, from the idea of a historical nation to the role of Castilian as a universal language. This book is an essential work for understanding the ideological strategies underlying Spanish politics and how these have contributed to the construction of national reality.
