espanolEn 1927, la revista espanola La Gaceta Literaria publico el conocido editorial titulado “Madrid, meridiano intelectual de Hispanoamerica”, en el que se defendia la necesidad de que Madrid fuera el referente intelectual de esa region. Esa misma postura, con una profunda carga ideologica, estuvo tambien presente en la base de otra polemica menos conocida pero tambien de gran importancia, la que mantuvo en la peninsula iberica con Portugal y Cataluna, territorios a los que la publicacion dirigida por Ernesto Gimenez Caballero se acerco con el interes de sumarlos a la causa de una politica cultural centralista con sede irrenunciable en Madrid. A traves del acercamiento a Cataluna, mediante una supuesta estrategia de defensa de la pluralidad peninsular, se tejia en realidad una orquestada campana basada en la unidad inquebrantable de Espana, cuya cultura seria ofrecida—aunque con resultados igualmente negativos—en Portugal e Hispanoamerica, como una posibilidad real de oposicion a la hegemonia internacional francesa. EnglishIn 1927, the Spanish magazine La Gaceta Literaria published the well-known editorial entitled “Madrid, meridiano intelectual de Hispanoamerica,” which defended the need for Madrid to be the intellectual point of reference for Latin America. This same position, with a deep ideological charge, was also present at the base of another, lesser known but also very important, debate, the one promoted in the Iberian Peninsula with Portugal and Catalonia, territories which this publication directed by Ernesto Gimenez Caballero approached with the interest of adding them to the cause of a centralist cultural policy with an inevitable seat in Madrid. Through the approach to Catalonia, by means of a supposed strategy of defense of the peninsular plurality, an orchestrated campaign was actually mounted based on the unbreakable unity of Spain, whose culture would be presented—although with equally negative results—to Portugal and Latin America, as a real possibility for opposing French international hegemony. |
