Iglesia y prensa española frente a la Unificación de Italia. Sagasta y el debate sobre el poder temporal del Papa

The question of the unification of Italy, initiated during the European revolutions of 1848, consistently arouses great interest as it transformed the geopolitical bases of the western and Mediterranean Europe declared in The Congress of Vienna of 1815, and because of this unionist process was the germ as well as the continuation and expansion of different parliamentary, journalistic and socio-political clashes in nineteenth-century Spain. Concretely in this work we will centre on the polemic that ultracatholics, moderates and progressives kept about the Italian unification matter, where we emphasizes the debate supported between Práxedes Mateo-Sagasta and the cardinal archbishop of Santiago on the temporary power of the pontificate, as well as in the information that informed public opinion across the related press to the same ideological views.
