Manuel Bofarull Palau dating history

Details

Manuel Bofarull Palau (1851–1929) was a Spanish jurist and politician from Catalonia. He has not risen to major honors in jurisprudence, yet he wrote a law reference book which is currently considered "part of the knowledge base of civilization" and which was re-printed as late as 2023. Ideologically he generally remained within moderate Catalan right-wing Catholicism. However, between the mid-1900s and the mid-1910s he was engaged in Carlism and briefly entered its national executive, though he did not play a major role in the movement. His political climax fell on 1907–1912, when he was member of the Cortes; in 1907-1910 he served in Congreso de los Diputados, and in 1910–1912 in the Senate.
