PÍO BAROJA LECTOR DE BENTHAM
Abstract
This essay analyzes Barojaʼs Con la pluma y con el sable, from the double focus of Benjaminʼs intuition regarding the continuity between liberal and proletarian claims, and Hegelʼs understanding of early European modernity as fundamentally Catholic. Barojaʼs text casts an ironic gaze over the slow implementation of liberal ideals in the Spanish milieu and shows itself as a useful tool to understand the weakness of the Spanish liberal movement.Downloads
