Synopsis
Excerpt from La Vida Santiaguina
Si las desgracias materiales anonadan el es piritu de los pueblos rir¡les, ¿qué de influen cias tan funestas no ojercerian esas catastro fes en el ánimo de aquella sociedad ignorante, supersticiosa fanáti..., que atribuía a casti go de Dios todos los infortunios de que era víctima, que estimaba la aparicion de los come tas como profecías de desgracias, que veia en los temblores de tierra la cólera terrible de la Divinidad hasta en los circulos de la luna señales inequívocas de futuros castigos? El cielo la tierra no ofrecían sino signos de des gracias; la felicidad la alegria no debían bus carse sino en la soledad de los claustros o en el fondo de las tumbas.
