Abstract
The anti-clerical expressions of the last decades of the 19th century in Uruguay ended in the so-called crisis of 1901. The events of that year showed a new anti-clericalism, which was also visible in France, Spain and other cities of the Southern Cone of America. On the one hand, the empowerment of the Catholic Church and public expressions of faith fuelled the opposition. The discourse and the "anti-obscurantist" actions were filled with rage.
