Abstract

It was the rewriting of a work by Benito Pérez Galdós belonging to the end of his career, El caballero encantado (1909), published in the context immediately after 1898, criticizing contemporary Spain. This article compares both works to analyze the criticism of Panhispanism by Ortiz based on a work of contemporary Spanish literature.
