History and profile

edit

La Campana de Gràcia was founded in 1870 by Innocenci López i Bernagossi [ca][1] and was edited for 64 years. The magazine was first published on 8 May 1870.[1] The magazine was published on a weekly basis.[1] Although at first it focused on the Spanish politics of the time, often leaving out Catalan politics and Catalanist actions, its ideological tone changed over time and by 1906 it openly expressed support for Solidaritat Catalana and Catalan working-class left-wing political issues. From 1932 until its last issue in 1934, it was owned by ERC.[1] Two of its most notable directors were Antonio Sierra and Prudenci Bertrana.
