From Pat Deveney's database:
Sentido Comun, El. It was opposition to this Catholic, anti-spiritualist journal that prompted the creation of El Buen Sentido of Lerida. The journal was devoted to a detailed theological criticism of spiritualism and "modern magic," and supplemented that with documents on the official Catholic response to these and other modern movements. See Oscar M. García Rodríguez, "El Buen Sentido, Revista Espiritista de Lleida," online at http://www.espiritnet.com.br/Flama/Ano2005/Flama01.htm. BNE. |

Sentido Común ('Common Sense') was a Spanish-language freethought review whose main energies — the defence of individual autonomy against the coercions of law and custom, the attack on established Catholicism as Spain's sole permitted religion, and the social question of poverty — place it largely outside the esoteric field, in the anticlerical liberal press that flanked nineteenth-century Spiritism. Within that orbit it carried genuine occult-adjacent threads: a Kardecist-spiritist strand and the older animal-magnetism vocabulary of the 'od' or odic force. It exemplifies the alliance, characteristic of Latin and Peninsular freethought, between rationalist anticlericalism and the 'scientific' spiritism that claimed to demonstrate the soul without the Church. Its surviving sample is small, and its precise identity and run remain provisional. Generated by Claude from the periodical's digitized text; a thematic reading, not a bibliographic description. |
