Alberto Corada Alonso is a Lecturer (Profesor Permanente Laboral) at the University of Valladolid, from which he holds a Ph.D. in History.
His research focuses on two main areas within Early Modern History. The first examines ecclesiastical institutions in Ancien Régime Castile, particularly those underrepresented in traditional historiography, such as beaterios (lay sisterhoods) and collegiate churches, analysed through their institutional and jurisdictional dimensions. Key publications include the monographs “Iglesia, conflicto y patronazgo. La colegiata de Aguilar de Campoo en la Edad Moderna (1541-1852)” and “Un beaterio en la Castilla del siglo XVIII. Vida y muerte en San Lázaro de Aguilar de Campoo”.
Prof. Dr. Corada Alonso's second research area explores the social history of justice, investigating courts as spaces that shaped gender identities. Notable outcomes include two co-edited volumes with Dr. Margarita Torremocha Hernández: “El estupro. Delito, mujer y sociedad en el Antiguo Régimen” and “La mujer en la balanza de la justicia (Castilla y Portugal, siglos XVII y XVIII)”.
His research in both areas has been recognised by leading research institutions, resulting in his appointment as a member of the Simancas University Institute of History (University of Valladolid) and as an affiliated researcher at the Centro de História da Sociedade e da Cultura (CHSC, Faculty of Arts and Humanities, University of Coimbra, Portugal).
