Abstract

This article offers an approximation to the imaginary of the nation contained in one of the most outstanding journals of nineteenth-century Spanish satirical journalism, Gil Blas (Madrid, 1864-1872), at the outbreak of the Glorious Revolution of 1868 and the first months of the Democratic Sexenio. From its literary material, it is analyzed how the republican newspaper means the «nation», as system of cultural significance and political and mobilizing actor. To that end, the study considers the community that composes it, its collective memory and the evils and enemies that affront it; elements that support the articulation and legitimization of his discourse and its identification mechanisms.
