This volume explores the effects of Greek presence in the Iberian Peninsula, and how this Iberian Greek experience evolved in resonance with its neighbouring region, the Mediterranean West. Contributions cover the Phocaean settlement at Emporion and its relationship with the indigenous hinterland, the government of the Greek communities, Greek settlement and trade at Málaga, the Greek settlement of Santa Pola, Greek trade in Southern France and Eastern Spain, the implications of imported Attic pottery in the fifth and fourth centuries BC and the conception of Iberia in the eyes of the Greeks. The Iberian Peninsula invites discussion of key notions of ethnic identity, the use of code-switchi...
La Necrópolis Orientalizante de Les Casetes, excavada durante el año 2000 en la ciudad de La Vila Joiosa (Alicante), plantea interesantes novedades sobre el denominado fenómeno orientalizante. El yacimiento se enmarca, además, en el contexto general del Bronce Final y del Periodo Orientalizante del Levante y el Mediodía peninsular, por un lado, y del mundo mediterráneo, por otro. José Ramón García Gandía es licenciado en Historia por la Universidad de Alicante. Sus intereses investigadores se centran en la Prehistoria, Arqueología e Historia Antigua.

Este trabajo es el resultado de una investigación centrada en el análisis de la represión en la retaguardia republicana durante la Guerra Civil y la posterior represión de posguerra durante la dictadura franquista en la población de Aspe.

In this highly important book, Javier Rodrigo examines the role of Fascist Italy in the Spanish Civil War from 1936 to 1939. Fascist Italy’s intervention in the Spanish Civil War to provide material, strategic, and diplomatic assistance led to Italy becoming a belligerent in the conflict. Following the unsuccessful military coup of July 1936 and the insurgents’ subsequent failure to take Madrid, the Corps of Voluntary Troops (CTV, Corpo Truppe Volontarie ) was created—in the words of an Italian fascist anthem—to ‘liberate Spain’, usher in a ‘new History’, ‘make the peoples oppressed by the Reds smile again’, and ‘build a fascist Europe’. Far from being insignificant o...
