Abstract	A comparative social and judicial analysis of an 1892 child murder, drawing from newspaper archives and other historical documents. This book discusses the role of Spain's intellectual elite in crystallizing dissatisfaction with the popular jury through its criticism of the 'masses' and the impact of journalists' fictionalized representations of the murder on public opinion.
