From Federico García to a hidden corpse
This article examines different strategies for staging García Lorca as a presence, either through physical or invisible embodiment, in plays that draw on his own works for inspiration. Ernesto Caballero’s Pepe el Romano (2000) incorporates a character called Federico García in a social structure of toxic masculinity. Alberto Conejero echoes Doña Rosita la soltera in an eerie scenario where an allegedly missing body is searched for Conejero’s Toda…
Galdós en el escenario conmemorativo
Este artículo analiza las obras El último viaje de Galdós y Galdós, sombra y realidad dentro del teatro producido para el centenario del deceso del escritor canario, basado en el elemento biográfico. Se fija en la utilización del recuerdo íntimo como estrategia dramática que, junto a la de proveer cuerpo y voz, permite hacer semblanza de la figura en un ejercicio de renovación de la memoria pública que desafía modalidades tradicionales de monumen…

The bombing of Guernica in documentary film
This article examines the way in which the April 1937 bombing of Guernica has been represented, either as an isolated episode or as part of the broader development of the Spanish Civil War, in documentaries created in regional, national and international production contexts. It draws attention to the techniques used in these films, mostly made for television, to reach viewers that – since they belong to multiple interpretative communities – are b…
From the Epic to the Allegorical Sublime
This article examines poetry written during the Spanish Civil War that reflects on the modern character of the conflict: the novel tactic of aerial bombing civilian populations as it was disseminated through the mass media. A comparative reading of this body of poetry written by Spanish, British, and American authors allows for the examination of the range of aesthetic paradigms employed to represent the Spanish war in different languages, even a…
Looking to France From Barcelona
On New Year's Day in 1888, the readers of Barcelona's newspaper La Vanguardia (1881–present) were greeted with an open letter from the editors announcing significant reforms in the content and form
Hispania, la leyenda
“Hispania, la leyenda” is the first Spanish attempt to represent on screen the Roman occupation of the Iberian Peninsula and the resistance led by Viriatus. This paper analyzes the TV series in terms of two key features that define it as a historical recreation that repackages the foundational myth as an adventure story with patriotic overtones: 1) the appropriation of a key figure in Portuguese culture to build a notion of Hispanic identity; and…
