A complaint that the theory of evolution was being taught in the Lyceum (i.e. secondary school) of that city, triggered an increasingly intense confrontation between the Catholic parishioners and the circle of young radical intellectuals articulating around the writer and educator Roberto Brenes Mesén. In the course of this process, Costa Rican society, to the alarm of the government of Cleto González Víquez, was the scene of popular mobilizations in defense of the faith, excommunications and burning of impious texts, while Catholic morality was systematically questioned based on sexual abuse attributed to priests. For a moment, it seemed that the country had gone back in time, and that the ghosts of 1884 were present.20th century history: c 1900 to c 2000bicsscSocial & cultural historybicsscHeredia (Costa Rica) – History – 1907Catholic Church – Heredia (Costa Rica)Brenes Mesén, Roberto, 1874-194720th century history: c 1900 to c 2000Social & cultural historyMolina Jiménez Ivánauth1236426BOOK9910557384003321La ciudad de los monos Roberto Brenes Mesén, los católicos heredianos y el conflicto cultural de 1907 en Costa Rica3035730UNINA
