The Spanish Civil War As A Religious Tragedy by José M. Sánchez
This study treats the Spanish Civil War primarily as a religious catastrophe, tracing how long-standing anticlericalism, politicized Catholicism, and church-state tensions erupted into widespread persecution of clergy, destruction of religious buildings, and the emergence of martyr narratives; it situates episodes of violence and sanctification within broader social and political currents, emphasizes the moral ambiguities and reciprocal cruelties on both sides, and explores how the conflict reshaped Spanish religious identity and memory in the decades that followed.
