The relations between Leopoldo Alas and the Catalan intellectual field at the end of the 19th century reveal certain recurrent mechanisms of the writer from Oviedo around the nationalism of his time. Clarín’s statements about the Catalan language —between epistolary privacy and its open critical postulates— allow us to think about the contradictions of the liberal framework in relation to the concept of hispanidad, its limits and its defense.
