Abstract
La imagen del Galdós republicano con simpatías socialistas no corresponde con las ideas políticas que defendió en la prensa durante el Sexenio revolucionario. En las crónicas parlamentarias que escribió para Las Cortes se mostró monárquico demócrata, fue liberal conservador en la Revista de España y El Debate, y cínico en La Ilustración de Madrid. Al tiempo, dependiendo del medio para el que escribiera, era despiadado con republicanos, socialistas, radicales y carlistas. El advenimiento de la República lo consideraba una desgracia para España, al mismo nivel que el triunfo del carlismo. Galdós ocultó en su vejez las cabeceras para las que escribió. Es posible que fuera para no perjudicar su imagen final de republicano coherente.
The public image of a republican Galdós with sympathies for socialism does not match with the political ideas he stood for in newspapers during the Six-Year Revolution Period. He was royalist and democrat in his parliamentary chronicles; liberal and conservative in Revista de España and El Debate; and cynical in La Ilustración de Madrid. He was ruthless all at once with republicans, socialists, radicals and carlists, depending on the journal or newsletter he was writing for. He thought that the emergence of the Republic would be a misfortune for Spain, similar to carlism. When he became old, Galdós remained silent on which publications he had written for during his lifetime, possibly in order to protect his final public standing of a coherent republican.
