«Un juego de tronos castizo» is the historical essay by Antonio Elorza, published by Alianza Editorial in paperback (328 pages, in Spanish).
Antonio Elorza analyzes the triangle formed by Charles IV, Maria Luisa of Parma and Manuel Godoy, whom the queen called «la trinidad», and Godoy's struggle with Napoleon. Those ambitions and errors facilitated the French invasion, the defeat at Trafalgar and the Peninsular War, whose violence Goya reflected in Los desastres de la guerra.
This work belongs to the Alianza Ensayo collection. The volume's subtitle is «Godoy y Napoleón: una agónica lucha por el poder». The first edition was published in March 2023.
Essay suitable for readers interested in the crisis of Charles IV's monarchy and the context prior to the Peninsular War.
Spanish historian, columnist and university professor (born 1943)
