  • Covadonga Y El Regionalismo Asturiano * Carolyn P
    Ayer 64/2006 (4): 149-178 ISSN: 1134-2277 Covadonga y el regionalismo asturiano * Carolyn P. Boyd University of California, Irvine Resumen: Este artículo aborda la política cultural del regionalismo y del nacionalismo en España a través del disputado significado otorgado al mito de Covadonga, conocido tradicionalmente como el «lugar de naci- miento de la Reconquista». Como mito de gran significación histórica tanto para la región asturiana como para la nación española, Covadonga también es un mito fundamental que creó identidad colectiva y que ejem- plificó el patriotismo dual de los regionalistas asturianos. Sin embargo, entre los tradicionalistas católicos y los reformistas europeizantes surgió una disputa acerca de las diferentes interpretaciones de la identidad y la historia regional y nacional. La conmemoración oficial del 1200 aniversa- rio de la «batalla» de Covadonga en 1918 marcó el triunfo de la interpre- tación nacional-católica del mito, que a partir de entonces se transformó en un símbolo de identidad regional partidista, antes que en un símbolo compartido. Palabras clave: regionalismo, nacionalismo, políticas culturales, Asturias, España, siglos XIX y XX. Abstract: This essay examines the cultural politics of regionalism and nation- alism in Spain by focusing on the contested meaning of the myth of Cov- adonga, traditionally known as the «birthplace of the Reconquest.» As a myth with historical significance for both the Asturian region and the Spanish nation, Covadonga was a potentially powerful symbol of collec- tive identity that exemplified the «dual patriotism» of Asturian regional- ists. But a protracted struggle to control the meaning of the myth arose * Traducción de Elvira Asensi (Universitat de Valencia) y revisión de Xosé M.

From these cave paintings, which today enjoy international recognition and protection, to the avant-garde architecture of the Centro Niemeyer in Avilés, centuries of history have passed which have helped to form the landscape of the Principality and the idiosyncrasies of the Asturian people. The Castro culture, the warrior Pelayo and the Kingdom of Asturias, the figures of the Enlightenment of the 18th century, the industrial revolution in a land that provided water and carbon, these are all elements you can still perceive and enjoy.

  • La Hermandad De Ntra. Sra. De Covadonga, De Asturianos Y Montañeses, De Granada (1702-1810)*
    LA HERMANDAD DE NTRA. SRA. DE COVADONGA, DE ASTURIANOS Y MONTAÑESES, DE GRANADA (1702-1810)* MIGUEL LUIS LOPEZ MUÑOZ RESUMEN La Hermandad de Nuestra Señora de Covadonga, de naturales de Asturias y la Montaña, constituye un ejemplo de cofradía grupal con connotaciones sociales específicas. Nació esta hermandad a comienzos del siglo XVIII, época de cierta presencia asturiana y cántabra en Granada. A lo largo del siglo, se convirtió en núcleo cohesionador de un reducido número de familias, a la vez que gozaba de un saneamiento económico que evidencia su escasa activi­ dad. Tras este proceso de agotamiento, desapareció en la época de la invasión francesa. Su existencia es el testimonio de la voluntad asociativa de personas nacidas en una misma re­ gión, que se traduce en una fórmula de amplio desarrollo en el siglo XVIII: la cofradía cerrada. SUMMARY The Brotherhood of Our Lady of Covadonga, whose members were originally from Astu­ rias and La Montaña (Santander), constitutes an example of a common brotherhood with specific social connotations. This fraternity was founded in Granada at the beginning of the 18th century, a time when there was a considerable Asturian/Cantabrian population in Gra­ nada. Throughout the 18 th century, this community became the cohesive nucleus of a small number of families; however, its limited activity evidences the Brotherhood’s growing lack of economic resources. After this period of depletion, the Brotherhood disappeared altogether during the French occupation of Spain. Its existence is nonetheless a testimony to the com­ munity spirit of persons born in the same region, and exemplifies a social unit which would develop widely in the 18 th century: the closed brotherhood.
