Abstract

The text is a review of the book "Vicente Enrique y Tarancón: La consecuencia del Evangelio" written by Joseba Louzao. The book is a brief biography of the Spanish bishop Vicente Enrique y Tarancón. The author uses secondary sources and interviews with Tarancón to write the book. The book addresses Tarancón's early years, his priestly formation, and his involvement in the Catholic Action. It also highlights his role in the Spanish Church during Franco's regime and the transition to democracy, his defense of religious freedom, and his support for the separation of Church and State. Tarancón was the Archbishop of Toledo and a cardinal, and later became the president of the Spanish Episcopal Conference. His support for the 1978 constitution and the negotiation of new agreements with the State were notable aspects of his career. [Extracted from the article]
