La voz de los vencidos
Una obra que hace justicia a los olvidados de nuestra Historia. «Casi todas las noches tocaban las sirenas. Barcelona era bombardeada. Mi madre nos vestía y bajábamos las escaleras, estábamos en el quinto piso. Una o dos veces nos llevó al metro, pero nunca a un refugio; nos dijo que un día presenció una bomba que cayó en la entrada de uno de ellos. Todo era muy difícil [...]. Por fin, mi madre consiguió el pasaporte y pudimos subir al tren hacia Francia. En Cerbère fuimos acogidos con muchos otros por la Cruz Roja, que nos dio de comer. Recuerdo el sabor especial de la leche condensada y el baño que mi madre nos dio en la playa». Son palabras de Dalia Sanz, que tenía once año...

Coming Home? Vol. 1
The wars of the twentieth century uprooted people on a previously unimaginable scale to the extent that being a refugee became an increasingly widespread experience. With the arrival of refugees, governments of host countries had to mediate between divided national populations: some wished to welcome those arriving in search of refuge; others preferred a strategy of exclusion or even expulsion. At the same time, refugees had to manage conflicts of the self as they responded to the loss of nationhood, families, socio-political networks, material goods, and arguably also a sense of belonging or home. While return migration was usually perceived by governments and refugees alike as the best sol...

La voz de los vencidos
Aunque en los libros de Historia se suelen recoger los nombres de los protagonistas que se consideran relevantes, quienes verdaderamente hacen la historia son las gentes anónimas, combatientes que lucharon en el frete, mujeres, niños y ancianos que tratar
Untold Stories of the Spanish Civil War
This is the first scholarly volume to offer an insight into the less known stories of women, children, and international volunteers in the Spanish Civil War. Special attention is given to volunteers of different historical experiences, especially Jews, and voices from less researched countries in the context of the Spanish war, such as Palestine and Turkey. Of an interdisciplinary nature, this volume brings together historians and literary scholars from different countries. Their research is based on newly found primary sources in both national and private archives, as well as on post-essentialist methodological insights for women’s history, Jewish history, and studies on belonging. By bri...
Constructing Spanish Womanhood
The first anthology in English on modern Spanish women's history and identity formation.
Culture as Soft Power
This book contributes to bridge the gap between different scholarly communities interested in the entanglements of culture and politics in the international arena. It sheds light on existing connections in their parallel evolution with a thorough literature review, complemented by several case studies showing the fruitful character of their interdisciplinary mobilisation. Through the notions of cultural relations, intellectual cooperation and cultural diplomacy, the book draws on a soft power perspective to offer a shared, novel, and interdisciplinary theoretical framework to approach cultural institutions and organisations that have been previously examined as isolated objects: for example, cultural institutes, international organisations, literary magazines, and literary contests. The interdisciplinary nature of this volume justifies the relevance of its content for scholars working in the history of international relations, international cultural relations and intellectual history, comparative literature, sociology of literature and global literary studies.
