This is a major English study of the novels of the Spanish Civil
War. The book is based on an analysis of some eighty Spanish
novels, written in Spain and abroad (in exile) during the Franco
period (1936-1975), in which the Civil War is the major theme. The
works are related to earlier examples of war literature, such as
the French novels of World War I. Dr Thomas examines the effects of
propaganda from both Left and Right in the early Civil War novels,
as well as the disillusionment of later works when the sincerity of
Republican and Nationalist ideals is seriously questioned. The
effects of propaganda and censorship on literary style are also
discussed. Major writers like Max Aub, Francisco Ayala, Ramon
Sender and Camilo Jose Cela are covered in depth; and there is a
comprehensive bibliography covering primary and secondary sources,
together with a glossary of Civil War terms. The Novel of the
Spanish Civil War offers a highly illuminating view of the
perception by creative writers of the political, religious and
moral issues of war throughout a troubled period.
