The Diario de Córdoba was a Spanish newspaper published in the city of Córdoba between 1849 and 1938.[1][2] Founded in the mid-19th century, throughout its history the newspaper established itself as one of the main publications in the capital of Córdoba. It became the dean of the Cordoban press and continued to be published well into the Spanish Civil War.

History

[edit]

It was founded in 1849[3] by the businessman and printer Fausto García Tena,[4][5] originally born as Diario de Córdoba of commerce, industry, administration, news and notices.[Note 1] After the death of the founder, in 1874 the newspaper was managed by his sons: Ignacio, Manuel, Rafael and Fausto.[6] At the end of the 19th century Rafael García Lovera was still in charge of the newspaper.[7] After his death the ownership of the newspaper passed into the hands of his widow, Araceli Osuna Pineda.[8]

In its early years it coexisted with another prominent local newspaper, La Crónica de Córdoba.

From its inception it was a publication with an independent[4] and moderate[6] editorial line, although it later moved towards more conservative positions. It stayed away from political disputes, focusing more on issues related to the development of Córdoba and its province. It would again adopt an independent stance after Ricardo de Montis became editor of the newspaper in 1929.[9] Despite the relevance it achieved at provincial level, it would never reach the circulation and relevance of the main newspapers of the time, nor did it always enjoy a healthy economy.[10] In this sense, the newspaper always had a modest circulation and would never exceed 3,000 copies.[11]

At the time of the Second Republic, the newspaper came to be considered the "dean" of the Andalusian press,[1] as by then it was the longest-lived newspaper that was still active. A reflection of its social prestige was the fact that since 1930 the newspaper had a street named after it.[11]

The Diario de Córdoba continued to be published after the outbreak of the Civil War,[Note 2] but the Press Law of 1938 established requirements that newspapers such as the Cordovan daily could not assume, so it ended up disappearing that same year.[12] Its last issue appeared on 30 September 1938.[13][Note 3]

Among the directors, editors and contributors were Ignacio García Lovera, Manuel García Lovera,[5] Ricardo de Montis, Marcelino Durán de Velilla —the last director of the newspaper between 1936 and 1938—,[11] Carolina de Soto y Corro,[14] Manuel Villalba y Burgos, José Osuna Pineda, Rafael Osuna Pineda, Francisco Arévalo, Antonio Arévalo, Manuel García Prieto, Rosario Vázquez,[15] Olimpia Cobos Losúa,[16] Eugenio García Nielfa, Francisco Azorín,[17] etc.

Archive

[edit]

The Municipal Library of Cordoba has microfilmed issues from 1854 - five years after its foundation - to 1938, although there are numerous gaps referring to specific issues and whole years. There are also series of copies conserved in the State Public Library in Cordoba, in the Municipal Archives of Cordoba and in the collections of the University of Cordoba.

Garci Fernandez agreed to call himself Count of Castañeda, which possession was taken by his wife Doña Aldonza, who was the daughter of D. Juan, Lord of Aguilar, and granddaughter of Count D. Tello.
