The catalogue of ecclesiastical brochures of the RSEAPT was part of a research project entitled the “Critical Catalogue of the Ancient Collection of Brochures of the Real Sociedad Economica”, that was carried out by collaboration between scientific, social and educational groups sponsored by the Fundación Canaria Mapfre Guanarteme.
Considered to be one of the most representative collections in the Institution, this type of ecclesiastical leaflet can be seen in multiple forms (pastoral letters, funeral prayer, sermons, panegyric, etc.) that cover a chronology from the 18th to the 19th centuries.
It is a bibliographical section of great interest for the study and interpretation of the history of the Catholic Church during the Enlightenment in the Canary Islands.
