La prensa napoleónica en España (1808-1814). Una perspectiva.

Abstract

The press related to Joseph I’s regime in Spain in 1808-1814, the Napoleonic press, has deserved, up to recent dates, little attention from historians, being considered as an intruder and his editors as traitors. Today a more balanced vision prevails. The present article offers a big picture of this press: his creators, his maintenance, his contents and obsessions and especially those who wrote it and which was their fate after the exit of the Napoleonic troops of the Iberian peninsula.
