España en la Argentina. Una reflexión sobre patriotismo español en el tránsito del siglo XIX al XX

Abstract

This paper deals with Spanish patriotism in Río de la Plata at the end of the XIX century and the beginning of XX century, exploring the Patria as a narration and the Nación as a symbol that activates politic mobilisation, as a result of the evocation that Spanish emigrants did of Spain by the other side of the Atlantic Sea, where they elaborated a narrative process of collective identity, nationalism, that had two addressees: the community of exiled people and the receiving society.
