The six essays collected in this volume are a selection from a
number of papers which were given at a one-day colloquium on 'Art,
Literature and the Spanish Civil War' which was held in Westfield
College on 18 July 1986, precisely fifty years to the day after
Franco's military coup in the Canary Islands, which was destined to
have such a decisive effect on the course of Spanish history.
Though this date subsequently became a Francoist celebration - the
so-called 'Dia del Alzamiento' (Day of the Uprising) - the papers
collected here do not demonstrate a Francoist bias. The overall
approach is intertextual and interdisciplinary, thereby stressing
the international nature of the artistic response to the war. For
the benefit of the English reader, all foreign quotations are
followed by an English translation.
