the period of 1820-1823, many in Spain showed great interest in spreading and explaining the principles and mechanics of Liberalism. This article focuses on three of the most important instruments which contributed to this educational and divulgatory task: the Observaciones attached by Marcial Antonio López to his translation of texts by Benjamin Constant; the Lecciones de derecho político para las escuelas de España, by Ramón Salas; and the various dictionaries and compendia of liberal theory published by francophile newspapers El Censor and La Miscelánea de Comercio, Política y Literatura. Moderate liberals, well-versed in the liberal ideas circulating at the time in Europe, used these publications not only as vehicles for educating the citizenry, but also as a barrier to lock out more radical ideas.
