  • Hotel Bristol” Question in the First Moscow Trial of 1936
    New Evidence Concerning the “Hotel Bristol” Question in the First Moscow Trial of 1936 Sven-Eric Holmström Leon Sedov Leon Trotsky John Dewey 1. Introduction The purpose of this essay is to introduce new evidence regarding the Hotel Bristol in Copenhagen, the existence of which was questioned after the First Moscow Trial of August, 1936. The issue of Hotel Bristol has perhaps been the most used “evidence” for the fraudulence of the Moscow Trials. This essay examines the Hotel Bristol question as it was dealt with in the Dewey Commission hearings of 1937 in Mexico by carefully examining newly uncovered photographs and primary documents. The essay concludes that • There was a Bristol located where the defendant in question said it was. This Bristol was in more than one way closely connected to a hotel. • Leon Trotsky lied deliberately to the Dewey Commission more than once. • Trotsky’s son Leon Sedov and one of Trotsky’s witnesses also lied. • The examination of the Hotel Bristol question made by the Dewey Commission can at the best be described as sloppy. This means that the credibility of the Dewey Commission must be seriously questioned. Copyright © 2008 by Sven-Eric Holmström and Cultural Logic, ISSN 1097-3087 Sven-Eric Holmström 2 • The author Isaac Deutscher and Trotsky’s secretary, Jean Van Heijenoort, covered up Trotsky’s continuing contact with his supporters in the Soviet Union. • It was probably Deutscher and/or Van Heijenoort who purged the Harvard Trotsky Archives of incriminating evidence, a fact discovered by researchers during the early 1980s. • This is the strongest evidence so far that the testimony in the 1936 Moscow Trial was true, rather than a frame up.

  • The New York Intellectuals and the Cuban Revolution
    INTRODUCTION In April 1959, during his first trip to the United States after the triumph of the Cuban Revolution, Fidel Castro spent sev- eral days at Princeton University. His visit was organized by the American Whig- Cliosophic Society and the Woodrow Wilson School’s Special Program in American Civilization. These groups had learned of Castro’s trip to Washington, which had been spon- sored by the American Society of Newspaper Editors, and with the encouragement of Roland T. Ely, a scholar of the Cuban sugar in- dustry, they invited Castro to deliver a keynote address on April 20 for a seminar entitled, “The United States and the Revolution- ary Spirit.”1 Another celebrated speaker during the seminar was Princeton professor Hannah Arendt, who was doubtless also in at- tendance for Castro’s address that evening.2 Castro, who at the time held the post of Cuban prime minister, began his speech by clarifying that he was neither a theorist nor a historian of revolutions. As he reminded his audience, his knowl- edge of revolutions came rather from his engagement with a rev- olution that had taken place in a small Caribbean nation close to the United States. In his view, the Cuban Revolution had debunked several myths propagated by the Latin American Right: that a 2 INTRODUCTION revolution was impossible if the people were hungry, and that a revolution could never defeat a professional army equipped with modern weapons. In keeping with the seminar’s predominant per- spective, Castro described himself as a product more of the 1776 American Revolution than of either the 1789 French Revolution or the 1917 Russian Revolution, insofar as the last two upheavals had been driven by “force” and “terror” wielded by minorities.3 As he put it, the groups that took power in France and Russia “used force and terror to form a new terror.” During his address, Castro situated his ideology well within the scope of a democratic American humanism shared by the United States and Latin America.

  • A Comparative Study of the Afro-Cuban Literary Imaginary of Guillermo Cabrera Infante and Carleton Beals Raúl Rubio the New School for Public Engagement Hipertexto
    Hipertexto 20 Verano 2014 pp. 84-104 Parodying the Popular: A Comparative Study of the Afro-Cuban Literary Imaginary of Guillermo Cabrera Infante and Carleton Beals Raúl Rubio The New School for Public Engagement Hipertexto his article comparatively examines the literary discursive formulas pertaining to Afro- T Cuban culture as seen in the texts Tres Tristes Tigres (1967) by Guillermo Cabrera Infante and The Crime of Cuba (1933) by Carleton Beals. Amidst the continued effort of defining a national culture, a project evident during the first half of the twentieth century in Cuba, given the creation of the Republic of Cuba in 1902, the work of Cabrera Infante and Beals, albeit representative of distinct historical timeframes, displays Cuban racial identity in a format that is similar, not only in its style, but in the context of its proposed intent, given the parodist manner both share.1 Throughout the literature and the arts of those eras, particularly throughout texts that feature the city of Havana and its corresponding popular cultures during the 1930s through the 1950s, it was common practice to illustrate national culture through literary representations that featured modes of “performing” race and ethnicity.2 These modes, in a certain sense, essentialized and 1 Among the key studies that analyze Cabrera Infante’s use of parodying, the study by William Rowlandson (2003) corroborates the following, “Parody, by the majority of standard definitions, is marginalized exclusively within the realm of imitation for the operatives of ridicule” (620) and “Parody, therefore, is a manner of imitation, in that the style, subject matter, language, or some other aspect of an artist or artistic style is reproduced in the work of another artist” (620).
