Abstract

In the framework of Hispanic Modernist reception, the volumen by the Andalucian Ramón Franquelo y Romero entitled Frases impropias, barbarismos, solecismos y extranjerismos de uso más frecuente en la prensa y en la conversación (1910) has not been studied in depth. The book was initially conceived as a guide for the correct use of the Spanish language, but the author tries to take advantage of it by attacking modernist literature, following Antonio de Valbuena or Friar Martín Blanco’s harsh voices, among others. Ramón Franquelo represents two focal points against the controversial literary movement: religious setting and linguistic purism. Franquelo’s case offers new keys with which we can continue delving into antimodernism.
