Sumario:This article analyzes the constitutional conventions of the Restoration regime in the literary work of Benito Pérez Galdós. It does so through two of his fundamental writings: the last novel of the fifth serie of the <em>Episodios Nacionales</em>, entitled <em>Cánovas</em>, and the parliamentary chronicles that Galdós sent to <em>La Prensa</em> de Buenos Aires. The author's doctrinal evolution from constitutional liberalism to regenerationist republicanism is verified through the Galdosian analysis of that political system, and the different value as historical sources of his work as a journalist and as a writer is shown, in favour of the first. However, the greater diffusion of the latter contributed to streghten a distorted analysis of the Restoration that served to legitimize republican criticism during the last decade of that liberal monarchy, and that would be projected beyond 1923 in all those political movements that affirmed its legitimacy in the disqualification of liberalism.
