MEMORY OF FIRE: THE SPANISH CIVIL WAR 80 YEARS AFTER A Linked Lecture, Exhibit and Film Series This year marks the 80th anniversary of the Spanish Civil War (1936‐1939) that saw the first armed confrontation between the forces of fascism and democracy. Backed by Hitler and Mussolini, General Francisco Franco led a rebellion against the democratically elected government of the Second Spanish Republic. Throughout the country the Spanish people armed themselves and fought off the coup, which turned into a bloody civil war that cost half a million dead and which many now understand as the dress‐rehearsal for World War II. Some 40,000 volunteers came from over 50 countries to offer their lives in the fight against fascism. Among them were some 2800 young Americans, a third of whom lie buried in Spanish soil. 11 students from the University of Washington joined that historic struggle. Film Series (all screenings in Smith 205, 7‐9 PM) October 12: Guillermo del Toro, Pan’s Labyrinth (2006) 1944, immediately after the Spanish Civil War, Ofelia and her mother, Carmen, who is in an advanced state of pregnancy, move to a small town where her husband, a cruel captain of Franco´s army, has been assigned. His mission is to exterminate the last members of the Republican resistance that remain hidden in the mountains of the area. One night, Ofelia discovers the ruins of a labyrinth, and there meets a faun, a strange creature that makes a surprising revelation: Ofelia is actually a princess and the last of her line. To return to her magical kingdom, she will face three tests. October 19: Trisha Ziff, The Mexican Suitcase (2011) This is the story of three lost boxes of negatives known as “the Mexican Suitcase” that were recovered in 2007. The boxes, misplaced in the chaos at the start of WWII, contained many of the Spanish Civil War negatives by the legendary photographer Robert Capa and fellow photographers Gerda Taro and David "Chim" Seymour. October 26: David Trueba, Soldados de Salamina (Soldiers of Salamis) (2003) A novelist experiencing writer’s block tracks a true story that occurred in the last days of the Civil War: the writer and Falangist, Rafael Sánchez Mazas, was shot with fifty other prisoners, but managed to escape and hide in a forest. Apparently, a soldier combing the area found him, but let him escape. The author reconstructs the pieces of this puzzle full of contradictions and enigmatic characters. With her research, though not aware of it, she not only seeks the truth of that story, but finds herself. November 2: Abe Osheroff, Dreams and Nightmares (1974) Long‐time Seattle resident Abe Osheroff fought in the Spanish Civil War as a member of the Lincoln Brigade from 1936‐1937. In the 1970s, he returned to Spain, where he decided to film "Dreams and Nightmares." The documentary explores his own personal experiences, war and its aftermath, and the U.S. involvement in the Franco regime. Until his death in 2008, Abe was a prominent social justice activist. In 1975 “Dreams and Nightmares” won the top award at a documentary film festival in Leipzig, then in East Germany. (Students from Geist’s seminar will prepare a flyer, and will introduce and lead Q&A for each film.) November 1‐30: Exhibit of SCW photographs by Agustí Centelles. Allen Library North Lobby. The Spanish Civil War Photographs of Agustí Centelles (The French Suitcase) This exhibit features 40 photographs taken during the Second Spanish Republic (1931-1936) and Spanish Civil War (1936-1939), and subsequently at the French concentration camp in Bram, by the celebrated Catalan photo journalist Agustí Centelles. When Centelles returned to Spain during World War II to escape persecution by the Gestapo on account of his work for the French Resistance, he left his photographic archive in a suitcase in the attic of a friend's house in Carcassonne. During the Franco Dictatorship he was not allowed to practice photojournalism and devoted himself to advertising. In 1976, after Franco's death, Centelles went to Carcassonne to retrieve the suitcase, where his negatives had remained intact – a story reminiscent of the recently-discovered "Mexican Suitcase" of negatives by Robert Capa, Gerda Taro, and Chim exhibited at ICP in 2010-2011. The exhibit includes the dramatic photographs Centelles took in Barcelona shortly after the military uprising of 18 July 1936, his photo-reportage during the war, and his extraordinary photographs taken in Bram concentration camp where he was interned on crossing into France (Students from Geist’s seminar will offer periodic docent tours of the exhibit in English and Spanish.) November 4: Lecture by Gina Herrmann, “Spanish Women Resisters in France and Spain” (Smith 102), 3:30‐5 PM Gina Herrmann is Associate Professor of Spanish at the University of Oregon. She is also Vice Chair of the Abraham Lincoln Brigade Archives. She is the author of books on communist culture in Spain and an oral historian working on the histories of Spanish communist women in the Spanish Civil War, WW2 and the French resistance. November 5: ALBA Teachers’ Workshop, conducted by Geist and Gina Herrmann. Smith 115, 9 AM‐1 PM. The aim of this workshop is to offer a selection of literary texts and works of art (Alberti, Hernández, Miró, Picasso, etc.) of the Spanish Civil War and the strategies to use them in the Spanish class. November 9: Lecture by Adam Hochschild, “Spain, The First Battle of World War II.” Kane Hall 110, 7‐9 PM From 1936 to 1939, the Spanish Civil War dominated headlines around the world. Volunteers from over 50 countries rushed to help Spain's democratically elected government fight an uprising by right-wing army officers backed by Hitler and Mussolini. Some 2800 of the volunteers were Americans, the only time so many of our countrymen-and women-have taken part in another nation's civil war. Adam Hochschild, author of 'Spain in Our Hearts,' gives an illustrated talk about some of the Americans caught up in this conflict.

RivetingBy Alan C. JasperA story that needed to be told this well, written with a clarity of both language and intent. The narrative follows a timeline and pays respect to, without blindly fawning over the idealism of the Lincoln Brigade. At the same time, it frankly acknowledges the snakes in the garden of Stalin's international communism, though the author does not delve into its political theory or elucidate its "road to serfdom." The perfidy of Franco, of the Nationalist fascists and of their civilian, ecclesiastic and foreign supporters is on the other hand well described.0 of 0 people found the following review helpful. A compelling work of literatureBy Jack WendelkenI knew very little about the Spanish Civil war.

London Review of Books. For them, the Spanish Civil War is simply an old event of easy judgment. Another startling thing is the raging idealism the International Corps who fought against Franco exuded. It is written with the usual Hoschild flair for combining history with storytelling: as it is told through the perspective of a number of American and English men and women who traveled or fought in Spain during the war, an otherwise chronological and rather complete history of the conflict becomes very accessible to readers, especially non-Spanish ones. As Spain in Spain in Our Hearts Americans in the Spanish Civil War Hearts notes, nearly 40, foreigners dodged the international non-intervention Spain in Our Hearts Americans in the Spanish Civil War and journeyed to Spain to fight on the Republican side. This did not stop the hundreds of American and several other nationalities from joining the Republicans to fight the fascists. Herbert L. Hochschild is particularly good in his denunciations of the vile Torkild Rieber, the Norwegian American who headed up Texaco Oil and supported the Nazis and Fascists throughout the s. These things make Spain of the s, a crucial battleground of its time, a resonant one for ours as well. Ernest Hemingway too puts in several appearances, handled deftly.

    54 Teaching History | Volume 43, No. 2 | Fall 2018 Adam Hochschild. Spain in Our Hearts: Americans in the Spanish Civil War, 1936-1939. Boston, MA: Houghton Mifflin, 2016. Pp. 438. $15.99. In October 1938, over 300,000 Spaniards lined the streets of Barcelona to honor two hundred Americans and other survivors of the International Brigades who had fought in the Spanish Civil War. The soldiers and nurses were part of the roughly 2,800 Americans who, in the midst of the Great Depression, defied the U.S. government and volunteered to support the Republican struggle against the military uprising of General Francisco Franco and the Nationalists. In Spain in Our Hearts: Americans in the Spanish Civil War, 1936-1939, Adam Hochschild chronicles the experiences of American volunteers and journalists in Spain on the eve of the Second World War. Combined with leftists from countries such as Canada, Great Britain, France, and the Soviet Union, the Americans faced inadequate training and supplies as well as a savage civil war in which the Nationalists relied on significant military support from Nazi Germany and fascist Italy. The result was Franco’s victory in 1939, unprecedented casualty rates for American soldiers, and, despite the cheering crowds in Barcelona and cries that the “crusaders for freedom” would never be forgotten, a poignant anti-fascist effort by Americans that remains largely missing from dominant historical accounts centered on World War II (337). Hochschild’s engaging narrative includes familiar characters such as Ernest Hemingway, George Orwell, and Pablo Picasso, whose role in the Spanish Civil War often blurred the line between journalism, art, and combatant.

The revolt caught the government off-guard; the rebellion swept across mainland Spain through provincial garrison revolts and, due to fact that the military led the uprising, it left the Republic with no soldiers, a destroyed command structure, and an environment of paranoia concerning which officers the government could trust.1 The divide between the rebel-held areas and the government held areas were largely along ideological lines. Alhough no area was completely pro-military

    HISTORY 451E (Literature and History/World/Comparative): LITERATURE AND THE CULTURAL MEMORY OF THE SPANISH CIVIL WAR Professor Vina Lanzona Department of History, University of Hawaiʻi at Mānoa Study Abroad Program in Spain, Fall 2019, International College of Seville Seminar Schedule: Wednesdays, 9:30am-12:00pm Office and Consultation Hours: Wednesday: 12:00-2:00pm Course Description: Present day Spain is once again in the midst of political turmoil with Madrid’s refusal to listen to and recognize the demands for independence by the region of Catalonia. Not too long ago, from 1936-1939, Spain was fighting a civil war, still considered as the most significant, and the bloodiest, period in the modern history of Spain. The Spanish Civil War (1936-1939) was marked by a bitter struggle for power between Nationalists (led by General Franco)—composed of Roman Catholics, factions in the military, landowners and businessmen—and Republicans— composed mostly of urban workers, agricultural laborers, and many of the educated middle class. Set against the backdrop of the rise of fascism in Europe, the Nationalists were supported by the fascist governments of Germany and Italy, while the Republicans received help from France and the Soviet Union. Indeed, the political and emotional reverberations of the war transcended national boundaries, as the Spanish Civil War became during the late 1930s the site of genuinely international conflict between dictatorship and democracy. In Spain, the war resulted in about a million deaths and years of national evasion and denial which are only now coming to an end. The Spanish Civil War engaged not only the military and politicians, but also artists, poets, writers, activists and intellectuals, many of whom participated in the war and produced profound and dramatic works of art and literature.

ONE PENINSULA, MANY SPAINS: AN INQUIRY ON MEMORY, HISTORIOGRAPHY, AND THE LEGACY OF THE SPANISH CIVIL WAR FROM 1930 TO THE PRESENT By: Adrian Rios Advisor: Jason Crouthamel HNR 499 Abstract: In this essay, I analyze the events of the Spanish Civil War and their ramifications through the lens of cultural memory and historiography. I argue that ideas of memory are crucial to how societies and individuals understand history and that the Spanish Civil War had a tremendous impact on the Spanish people and significantly affected the memory not only of witnesses of the conflict, but to their descendants. This essay utilizes primary and secondary sources to understand the function of memory and varied responses to the Spanish Civil War.
