Abstract
Two different works regarding the beginnings of the Peninsular War. The first of them, due to professor Sanchez-Arcilla, shows the acts and some documents relative to the members of the Junta Suprema de Gobierno, who acted for just some months in 1808�s Madrid. In the second work, picked up by professor Porras, part of a private correspondence is presented, relating the sacking of the city of Jaén in the summer of that year, being the prelude of the popular attitude in the Bailén battle.
