Biography

Carlos Cañal was born on 3 September 1876. He was a law graduate, archaeologist, and historian. In October 1896, he obtained a Doctorate in Philosophy and Letters from the Faculty of Philosophy and Letters at the Central University. In 1899, he was appointed as a councilor of the Seville City Council.[1][2]

In his youth, he was dedicated to archaeology and served as an assistant professor at the University of Seville. He became a member of the Real Academia Sevillana de Buenas Letras.[3] Aligned with the Conservative Party,[4] he obtained a seat as a deputy for the electoral district of Utrera following the 1903 elections.[5] In the elections of 1907,[6] 1910,[7] 1914,[8] 1916,[9] 1918,[10] and 1919[11] he was re-elected as a deputy for Sanlúcar la Mayor. He held the post of prosecutor of the Supreme Court, equivalent to the State attorney general from 16 June to 14 November 1917.[12]

He held the post of Minister of Supplies between 23 July and 28 September 1919[13] in a Sánchez Toca cabinet. Subsequently, he was the first Minister of Labour, occupying the portfolio between 8 May 1920 and 13 March 1921,[14] in a government presided over by Eduardo Dato. Finally, he would become Minister of Grace and Justice between 4 and 7 December 1922 in a Sánchez Guerra cabinet.[15] Between 1927 and 1930, he was a member of the National Assembly of Primo de Rivera's dictatorship.[16]

In 1927, he was appointed member of the Permanent Commission of the Ibero-American Exposition and in 1930, he was appointed Regional Commissioner-President of the Ibero-American Exposition in Seville.[2]
