Abstract

When the Cádiz Cortes were committed in drafting their constitution, church-state relations were quite tense, since the measures adopted by the Cortes and endorsed by the Constitution of 1812, clearly clashed with clerical centuries-long interests and deep-rooted ideology. In this context, the activity of some representatives of the Cadiz local press and, in particular, the satirical journal Abeja Española, was aimed at wide spreading the constitutional principles and creating what nowadays we intend as “public opinion”. Publications are embedded with satire but there can be read serious articles and contributions of social concern too, aimed at seducing an audience who moves towards modernity.

Descrizione: When the Cádiz Cortes were committed in drafting their constitution, church-state relations were quite tense, since the measures adopted by the Cortes and endorsed by the Constitution of 1812, clearly clashed with clerical centuries-long interests and deep-rooted ideology. In this context, the activity of some representatives of the Cadiz local press and, in particular, the satirical journal Abeja Española, was aimed at widespreading the constitutional principles and creating what nowadays we intend as “public opinion”. Publications are embedded with satire but there can be read serious articles and contributions of social concern too, aimed at seducing an audience who moves towards modernity.
