The "Notes for a Latin Philology Course" of Canalejas in the Spanish Philology of the Restoration

In this work I propose to examine the "Apuntes para un curso de literatura latina" published by Jose Canalejas Mendez between 1874 and 1876. The analysis will show how the work is inserted in the tradition of the previous century, but it is also capable of surpassing it to conform a particular synthesis in the context in which the school of Spanish philology is also being formed. In this sense, it should be remembered that the Historiography of Latin Literature is born together with that of Spanish Literature. From the methodological point of view, some proposals are formulated for the analysis of the texts with which the Historiography of Latin Literature is constructed.
