Forging a Bourgeois Reader's Role: Luis Cañuelo and Mariano José de Larra as Protagonists of Spain's "Polemic" Press

Prairie View A&M University in Prairie View, Texas.

The indebtedness of Mariano José de Larra to the late 18th-century Spanish journalist, Luis Cañuelo, is readily apparent, although Larra never acknowledged his influence. This article studies Cañuelo's influence on Larra's creation of a bourgeois reader role. The author believes that Cañuelo's particular brand of caustic sociopolitical commentary and his image of the reader as a member of a collective reformist movement most closely matched that of Larra.

Key Words: Cañuelo • Larra • 18th/19th century Spanish literature • reader's role in literature
