Subliminal Violence Against Women in Flores y Perlas (1883-84), a Periodical by and for the bello sexo: Two Case Studies

Abstract
The article presents a formal and content-related analysis of Flores y Perlas, a journal created for women readers which relied almost exclusively on female collaborators. The weekly journal was founded by María del Pilar Sinués who edited it for the first four months. The publication was short-lived (27 issues came out between March 1883 and October 1884) and switched from being a “periódico literario, recreativo y moral dedicado al bello sexo” to a “periódico literario, moral y religioso publicado bajo la censura eclesiástica” for the last two issues, which were edited by Eulalia González de Barbarroja. The objective is to identify in the two articles selected forms of subliminal violence exerted by the authors on their own gender.
