History
editThe Alfonso X el Sabio Royal Academy was founded on November 19, 1940, following a proposal from Luis Carrasco Gómez, president of the Murcia Provincial Council, who presented to the deputies an idea based on a previous one by José Ibáñez Marín, who had already proposed the founding of the academy in February 1930, when it was agreed, an agreement that was forgotten by the vicissitudes of the Second Spanish Republic and, above all, of the Spanish civil war.[3]
On April 12, 1941 the solemn act of its constitution and initiation of activities took place, an act presided over by the then Minister of Education José Ibáñez Martín. The Academy functioned under the tutelage of the Provincial Council until 1982, being managed since then by the Governing Council of the Region of Murcia.[4] The Academy has been attached, since its foundation, to the Spanish National Research Council and is part of the Spanish Confederation of Local Study Centers and the Institute of Spain.[5]
