Topographies of Fascism offers the first comprehensive exploration
of how Spanish fascist writing - essays, speeches, articles,
propaganda materials, poems, novels, and memoirs - represented and
created space from the early 1920s until the late 1950s. Nil
Santianez contends that fascism expressed its views on the state,
the nation, and the society in spatial terms (for example, the
state as a "building," the nation as an "organic unity," and
society as the "people's community"), just as its adherents
celebrated fascism in its architecture, public spectacles, and
military rituals. While Topographies of Fascism centres on Spain, a
nation that produced a large number of fascist texts focused on
space, it also draws on works written by key German, Italian, and
French fascist politicians and intellectuals. Ultimately, it
provides an innovative model for analyzing the comparable yet often
overlooked strategies of symbolic representation and production of
space in fascist political and cultural discourse.
