Memories of the Spanish Civil War Conflict and Community in Rural Spain by Ruth Sanz Sabido
Brand: Rowman & Littlefield International
Product Description
The Spanish Civil War left a legacy of destruction resentment and deep ideological divisions in a country that was attempting to recover from economic stagnation and social inequality. After Francos victory the repression and purge that ensued immersed Spain in a spiral of fear and silence which continued long after the dictators death through the pact of oblivion that was observed during the transition to democracy. Memories of the Spanish Civil War Conflict and Community in Rural Spain attempts to break this silence by recovering the local memories of survivors of the Civil War and the early years of Francos dictatorship. Combining oral testimony gathered in one Andalusian village with archival research this ethnographic study approaches the expression of memory as an important site of sociopolitical struggle. show more
