Abstract
This article examines the contributions of Víctor Balaguer to the 1884 edition of the Diccionario de la lengua castellana of the Real Academia Española. Just a few weeks after being appointed a full member of the Academy in 1883, Balaguer submitted a series of proposals for additions and amendments via the card system. Through a detailed analysis based on the cards held in the RAE Archive, the entries and modifications suggested by Balaguer are highlighted, along with their impact on the twelfth edition of the DRAE, assessing which were accepted and which were discarded. Additionally, the article explores the connection between Balaguer’s life and interests and some of his proposals, particularly, those related to the Philippines, America, Cuba, and Provençal literature.
