Paris-Murcie, París-Murcia, Murcia-París : la presse et la charité sans frontières, en France et en Espagne, en 1879 / Paris-Murcie, París-Murcia, Murcia-París: Press and Charity without Borders in France and Spain in 1879
Abstract
This article examines the astonishing case of three newspapers, only one of each was published on the occasion of the floods that took place in Murcia (Spain) in October 1879, giving this event an international dimension. The Parisian Paris-Murcie was duplicated in Madrid as the París-Murcia which, itself, had a murcian version Murcia-París. These publications, mainly aimed at raising funds for the victims, provide an exceptional illustration of how texts circulate from one language to another, from one country to another and from one periodical to another.
