Abstract

This article describes a journalistic experience which emerged in Montevideo (Uruguay) during the Luso-Brazilian annexation, in a context of social changes and political language transformation. Revolutions, wars and the emergence of liberal movements in the Iberian Peninsula helped accelerate these processes. The study of El Pacífico Oriental de Montevideo and the difficulties faced by its editor allows us to know more about the debates about freedom, liberty and the importance of public opinion in the 1820s.
