Educación y propaganda en los textos confederados para niños (1861-1865)
Resumen
Los textos orientados a la infancia han sido tradicionalmente decisivos en la conformación de las mentes más jóvenes, siendo utilizados en muchas ocasiones como refuerzo de la política propagandística pensada para los adultos. La Confederación, en pleno proceso de construcción de una nueva identidad nacional, no fue ajena a este poder de influencia. El presente trabajo analiza qué ideas de las empleadas por la propaganda confederada tuvieron cabida en los textos dirigidos a la población infantil, señalando cuáles de ellas iban destinadas a la formación de futuros ciudadanos y cuáles tenían como intención actuar como refuerzo del discurso propagandístico-ideológico confederado, observando además en qué cuestiones ambos discursos, el pensado para los niños y el pensado para adultos, siguieron una línea similar (exaltación patriótica de la nación) y en cuáles se produjo una cierta ruptura (defensa de la esclavitud).
