from Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Andreu Ivars i Cardona ( 1885 in Benissa , Marina Alta - 1936 in Gata de Gorgos , Marina Baixa) was a Valencian Franciscan , priest and church historian .

Life

In 1900 he entered the Franciscan order in the monastery of Sant Esperit near Gilet and made his first vows in 1901. In 1909 he was ordained a priest . Being an excellent student, he was sent to the Antonianum Pontifical University of Rome . There he studied patristics and history of the Roman Catholic Church . At the same time he studied palaeography and diplomatics at the school of the Vatican Secret Archives . In 1913 he was sent to the Franciscan Historical Research Center in Quaracchi (near Florence ), where he stayed for a year.

Jaume Sala died in 1914 . He came from the same Franciscan Province of Valencia and was one of the founders of the Archivo Ibero-Americano (AIA) magazine . Ivars replaced him as representative of the Franciscan Province of Valencia, and from that moment on he wrote for this magazine. In 1919 he became vice director and in 1928 director of the AIA.

He came back to his home province for a while and performed various tasks there: master's degree from students, chronicler, etc. a.

From 1920 to 1936 he lived in Madrid , and he was entirely occupied with historical research. Many works have been published in AIA magazine. He wrote articles and books dealing with history or culture in general, Franciscan and Valencian subjects, in Spanish and Valencian . The majority of his works were dedicated to the medieval Valencian Franciscan writer Francesc Eiximenis .

On July 20, 1936, d. H. just a few days after the outbreak of the Spanish Civil War , members of a republican militia had burned the College of Cardinal Cisneros . This was the seat of the AIA magazine and the Franciscans were arrested by the militia. Andreu Ivars was not present at the moment, but his library, his archive and all the material he had collected during the years of research burned. First he went to the “Villa Luz” clinic, where he worked as a chaplain. He later moved in with friends. But he finally made the decision to travel to his home village to visit his family. He was arrested in Denia while he was leaving . On the morning of September 8, 1936, his body appeared near Gata de Gorgos . He had been shot. Because of his violent death, a beatification process followed .
