L’écho de la révolution espagnole de 1820 dans la presse italienne : le cas du Royaume des Deux-Siciles
Abstract
The article highlights the Italian mediatic echo of the revolution that began in Spain at the beginning of January 1820, through the case of the Kingdom of the Two Sicilies, where the Spanish insurrection had been set up as a model by the Neapolitan liberals, starting from the uprising that they provoked in the first days of July 1820. The attention paid to the Constitution of Cadiz and to Spanish parliamentary events is explained by the fact that they are considered experimental, in order to install a liberal regime in Naples. The aim is to highlight the processes of construction built around the Constitution of Cadiz, as well as the debates it provokes within Neapolitan civil society, by drawing on both the information press and Neapolitan and Palermo opinion magazines, which are particularly attentive to Spanish political news.
