Juan MartÃn el Empecinado, Esta novela, la novena de la primera serie de los Episodios Nacionales, la publicó Benito Pérez Galdós en 1874. El general Juan MartÃn DÃez el Empecinado es retratado por Galdós como un héroe lleno de humanidad que protagoniza diálogos muy divertidos por su tosco vocabulario, pero es también un hombre valiente, fiero, noble y prudente, que despierta el respeto incluso de sus enemigos. Persona de firmes convicciones liberales, terminó por enfrentarse al propio Fernando VII, al no respetar éste la Constitución de 1812, y fue desterrado a Portugal. Al intentar de nuevo penetrar en España fue capturado, torturado y exhibido en una jaula antes de ser condenado a la horca. Su perseverancia al defender sus ideales ha hecho que empecinado signifique hoy en dÃa obstinación y que él sea recordado como uno de los más grandes defensores de la libertad en España
