Its main claim is that the demise of the Spanish empire in 1898 spurred a number of contradictory emotional responses, ranging from mourning and melancholia to indignation, pride, and shame. It shows how intellectuals sought to reimagine a post-Empire Spain by drawing on myth and employing a predominantly emotional register.Contemporary Hispanic and Lusophone cultures ;10.Collective memorySpainSpanish literature20th centuryHistory and criticismSpainHistory1868-1931Collective memorySpanish literatureHistory and criticism.946.074Krauel Javier1972-943850MdBmJHUPMdBmJHUPBOOK9910159428503321Imperial emotions2130570UNINA
