MASDEU, JUAN FRANCISCO (1744-1817)

This article appears in Volume V17, Page 836 of the Encyclopedia Britannica.

Encyclopedia Britannica - Main :: MAR-MEC
MASDEU, JUAN FRANCISCO (1744-1817) , Spanish historian, was born at
Palermo
  on the 4th of October 1744. He joined the
Company
  of Jesus on the 19th of December 1759, and became professor in the Jesuit seminaries at Ferrara and
Ascoli
 . He visited Spain in 1799, was exiled, and returned in 1815, dying at Valencia on the
lath
  of
April
  1817. His Storia critica di Spagnae della cultura spagnuola in ogni genere (2 vols., 17811784) was finally
expanded
  into the Historia critica de Espana y de la cultura espanola (17831805), which, though it consists of twenty volumes, was left unfinished; had it been continued on the same scale, the
work
  would have consisted of fifty volumes. Masdeu wrote in a
critical
  spirit and with a regard for accuracy rare in his time; but he is more concerned with small details than with the philosophy of history. Still, his narrative is lucid, and later researches have not yet rendered his
work
  obsolete.
