During the 1930s, no event was more absorbing or galvanizing to
Ernest Hemingway than the Spanish Civil War. Hemingway was
passionately devoted to the cause of the democratically elected
Spanish Republic and he spent much of the war reporting from its
front lines, producing a deeply political body of work that
illuminated the conflict and presaged the world war to come. In the
end, his immersive journey into the turbulent world of the Spanish
Civil War resulted in For Whom the Bell Tolls, a landmark in
American political fiction. This book offers a fresh account of
Hemingway's adventures in Spain during the Civil War, stressing his
embrace of radical political action and discourse in defense of the
Republic against the forces of Fascism. On the eightieth
anniversary of For Whom the Bell Tolls, Gilbert H. Muller
reconsiders Hemingway as an engaged artist, political actor, and
visionary.
