This book examines the changing fortunes of Catalan cartooning against the shifting political landscape in the period 1898–1982. It considers how Catalan satire has been shaped by periods of relative calm as well as periods of censorship, violence, war, and dictatorship, and it demonstrates how the cartooning tradition did not end with the Franco dictatorship, but instead continued in a number of adapted forms, playing its own role in the period’s politics.
