EPÍGONOS DEL REFORMISMO ORTOGRÁFICO EN ESPAÑA TRAS LA OFICIALIZACIÓN DE LA DOCTRINA ACADÉMICA (1844-1868)

Abstract

This research aims to determine the immediate repercussions that the officialization of the academic orthography in 1844 has on the hopes of neographers in Spain. After a brief period of quiet, they find new ways of vindication in the pedagogical press, where they become as symbol of the fight against academic orthography. El Magisterio. Periódico de educación y enseñanza , Anales de primera enseñanza , Boletín de Primera Enseñanza de la provincia de Salamanca and La conciliación. Revista de primera enseñanza are witnesses of the different controversies between neographers and academicians, in which authors like Ruiz Morote, Rosa y Arroyo and Basilio Tirado demand unity among the teachers so that their re-quests for orthographic reform are accepted and executed by the Academy, the only authority in the matter. This paper analyses the content of all these reformist actions and their impact both on the actions of the RAE from the 1960s onwards and on the adoption of the different measures that will emerge on linguistic and educational levels of the following years, from the so-called six democratic.
