Additional Reading
Gregorio Marañón, El conde-duque de Olivares: (la pasión de mandar), 26th ed. (1998), is an excellent psychological study, although to some degree vindictive. E. Zudaire Huarte, El conde-duque y Cataluña (1964), is a valuable study of the fight between Olivares’s modern concept of the state and Catalonia’s separatist policy. J.H. Elliott, The Revolt of the Catalans: A Study in the Decline of Spain, 1598–1640 (1963, reissued 1984), is an analysis of the political relations between Castile and Catalonia during the reign of Olivares, Imperial Spain, 1469–1716 (1963, reprinted 1990), is an excellent history, and The Count-Duke of Olivares: The Statesman in an Age of Decline (1986), is the most thorough study available.
