Career
Obtaining his bachelor's degree at ICADE, Rodríguez graduated from the 1970 class of the Complutense University of Madrid with his Doctor of Law, his thesis being on French academic Raymond Aron. From 1969 to 1971, he studied sociology at the University of Pau and the Adour Region, collaborating with Spanish exiles like Manuel Tuñón de Lara. As such, Rodríguez was anti-Francoist, advocating for democracy during the early 1970s. Consequently, in addition to his studies on Alexis de Tocqueville, he was described by Carlos Moya as a "Tocquevillian socialist sociologist".

50°58′09″N 02°26′06″E / 50.96917°N 2.43500°E / 50.96917; 2.43500 The Abbey of Saint Winnoc (French: Abbaye de Saint-Winoc is a former monastery in Bergues, in the department of Nord in northern France. It traces its origins to the 7th century, and from the early 11th century became a Benedictine abbey and grew in wealth. The monastery was damaged by fire twice, and heavily rebuilt in the 18th century. Following the French Revolution, the abbey was disbanded, sold and most of the buildings dismantled. Only two towers remain, as they were used as navigational aids.

Origins
The abbey traces its origins to the late 7th century, when a monastery dedicated to Saint Winnoc was founded by the abbot of the Abbey of Saint Bertin in Wormhout. In 899 Baldwin II, Margrave of Flanders, had the relics of Saint Winnoc moved to Bergues and constructed a new church there. Circa 1020 Baldwin IV, Count of Flanders had yet another church built in Bergues and the relics transported there. It was originally a collegiate church, but in 1022 Count Baldwin expelled the canons and turned the monastery into a Benedictine abbey. Until 1068, the abbot of the monastery was chosen from the ranks of the Abbey of Saint Bertin.

Origins
The new abbey was located on an important trade route and close to important commercial centres, and attracted plenty of pilgrims and patrons. It had also been generously bestowed with land and tithes by Count Baldwin, and thus quickly became a rich monastery. From an early date, it began issuing its own coins and received permission to hold a yearly market in Wormhout. The abbey also actively sought to enhance its attractiveness by acquiring the relics of two further saints, Oswald of Northumbria and Lewina, and by producing a written narrative of the reported miracles of Saint Winnoc.

Later history and dissolution
In 1083 the entire abbey was destroyed in a fire, but appears to have been rebuilt by 1133. In that year the new abbey church was consecrated. The choir was substantially enlarged by works which were begun in 1288 and ended during the early 14th century. Another fire damaged the monastery in 1558.

Later history and dissolution
The monastery was largely rebuilt in 1753–1770; however soon thereafter, following the French Revolution and the ensuing suppression of monasteries, the monastery was closed and sold in 1798. Soon thereafter it was almost entirely dismantled. Only the former gate of the monastery (later moved somewhat) and two towers were preserved, the latter because they served as daymarks, a form of navigational aid for sailors. The western tower collapsed in 1812, and was rebuilt the following year with an octagonal plan.

Abbots
Abbots of the Abbey of Saint-Winnoc who gained importance beyond the monastery include Gérard de Haméricourt (1504–1577, first bishop of Saint-Omer) and Guillaume Dubois (1656 – 1723, French cardinal and statesman).

The anomaly was identified and dated via iron oxide grains baked into ancient bricks from Mesopotamia. The names of Mesopotamian kings inscribed into the cuneiform tablets helped scientists to determine the dates of the anomaly.
