Landscape and Identity. The vision of Castile as a National Landscape (1876-1936)
Year: 2009
Type: article
Abstract: The Castilian landscape acquired a great symbolic importance during the period that runs from 1876 o 1936. Its conversion into a national landscape was produced at tat time, throughout a process that was initiated by the Institución Libre de Enseñanza, founded in 1876, and was continued afterward by authors -writers and painters- who were known as the generation of 98, in the last stage of the century and the first decades of the twentieth century. The vision of Castile was thus conformed as a national landscape, and that vision was, at all times, associated with the liberal and reformist ideology that the Institución Libre de Enseñanza promoted initially and that other intellectual and artistic circles who received its legacy prolonged afterward.
