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.

In 25 innovative thematic essays, The Bloomsbury Handbook of the Spanish Civil War sees an interdisciplinary team of scholars examine a conflict that, more than 80 years after its conclusion, continues to generate both scholarly and public controversy. Split into four main sections covering Military and Diplomatic Issues, Society and Culture, Politics, and Debates, the volume offers a number of unique features. It is unprecedented in its comprehensiveness and includes chapters on topics that are rarely, if ever, explored in the literature of the field: humanitarianism, children and families, material conditions, the decimation of elites, archives and sources, archaeological approaches, digit...
Leben in der »Patrix«: In der patriarchalen Matrix bestimmt das Männliche die Welt. Indem es sich zur alleinigen Norm erhebt, blendet es alle nicht der (cis) männlichen Norm entsprechenden Menschen aus. Die Beiträger*innen des Bandes setzen sich kritisch mit diesem Konzept auseinander, liefern eine systemische Rückbindung in historischer Tiefe und diskutieren die Geschlechtlichkeit von Objekten, Strukturen und Hierarchien in intersektionaler Perspektive. Die Verflechtungen der Machtstrukturen werden dabei ebenso in den Blick genommen wie die unterschiedlichen Dimensionen der Diskriminierung. Ausgehend von Rebekka Endlers »Das Patriarchat der Dinge« vertiefen und erweitern die interdisziplinären Forschungsbeiträge dessen zentrale Thesen.
Desde el Grupo de Innovación Docente "Aprendizaje, Servicio y Sociedad", hemos trabajado con el propósito de establecer un puente entre la educación superior y las demandas cambiantes de la sociedad. Los capítulos de esta obra contribuyen de manera significativa a la investigación en docencia, centrándose en métodos de investigación y diagnóstico, así como en los avances en competencias transversales, aprendizaje-servicio, gamificación, metodologías activas, salud y la docencia universitaria. Esperamos que los contenidos presentados inspiren a docentes, investigadores y estudiantes a avanzar en la mejora continua de la educación.
Although there is an established historiography on women’s roles during the Spanish Civil War (1936-9), little has been written on Nationalist women in the Republican-held zones. Women were the anti-Republican resisters of the first hour in the capital but they have been largely overlooked in the historical record. During the bitter civil conflict a sector of dissident women helped to create a subversive and clandestine national Catholic space in the heart of Republican Madrid. By examining the vital and invisible role played by women within Madrid’s ‘fifth column’ this monograph offers a new contribution to the gender historiography of the Spanish Civil War and re-evaluates the sign...
Sueñan los Nadies de la Guerra de España que algún día llueva de pronto el reconocimiento que merecen, pero ni en llovizna les cae del cielo. Por contra, la tormenta del olvido les sigue empapando. Por mucho que nos llamen, solo tienen por respuesta el silencio. Después de tres años de guerra y cuatro décadas de dictadura, no se cuestionaron los relatos de los grandes nombres, las inamovibles dicotomías y la eterna narración de las dos Españas fratricidas que se mataron a garrotazos. Más de cuarenta democráticos años después, y a pesar del esfuerzo de activistas e historiadores, los Nadies siguen sin ser alguien, y parece que para nuestra sociedad resulta más cómodo así: los Nadies valen menos que el consenso que los olvidó. Leira Castiñeira, en la presente obra, devuelve a los Nadies al lugar que les corresponde en las páginas de la Historia. Dando voz a María y Urania, a Juan, a Francisco y Dorinda… el autor nos muestra una época con muchas más aristas de lo que los relatos dominantes nos han legado.
