- Abstract
The article talks about two critical and mocking dictionaries that are based on the lexicographic model for their propagandistic purposes. One of the mentioned dictionaries is the "Diccionario razonado manual para inteligencia de ciertos escritores que por equivocación han nacido en España" (Reasoned Manual Dictionary for the Understanding of Certain Writers Who Were Born in Spain by Mistake), published in Cádiz in 1811. The article highlights the importance of these dictionaries in the context of freedom of the press and the publishing boom of the time. It also mentions two recent editions of 18th-century dictionaries, accompanied by annotations and comments, carried out by the 18th Century Studies Group of the University of Cádiz.
