Abstract

This essay traces the development of notions of fragmentation in relation to ideas of overarching narratives in nineteenth century Spain. It argues that by the mid-century, experimental writers and artists (Antonio Ros de Olano, Eugenio Lucas, Rosalía de Castro), sought to move beyond both contextualised fragments of time and grandiose narratives of historical development.
