  • The Elephant in the Room? Religion in the pliegos sueltos of Peninsular Spain

    Alison SinclairARTICLEBulletin of Spanish Studies2018

    This article looks at the presence of religion in popular literary culture in the form of pliegos sueltos and aleluyas in the long nineteenth century in Spain. It draws primarily on the collection of 4,700 sueltos digitized by the Wrongdoing Project (2011–2014). Religious material is present in a number of forms, educational and hagiographic, but is combined with a taste for the shocking. Explicitly religious material is, however, smaller in prop…

  • The Ambiguities of Retribution

    Alison SinclairARTICLEBulletin of Spanish Studies2017

    The exhibition and shaming through the ordeal of public execution was a way of making public authority's control over wrongdoers. As Michel Foucault has noted, however, this was a process with the unintended potential of arousing admiration or sympathy in the spectator. In Spain the figure of the bandolero, despite crimes sufficient to take him to the gallows, was frequently presented in a positive light. The images in pliegos sueltos which comme…

  • Overcoming Helicopter Force Generation Challenges for UN Peacekeeping Operations

    Jake Sherman, Alischa Kugel et al.ARTICLEInternational Peacekeeping2012

    UN peacekeeping missions are increasingly mandated to take on a range of complex tasks. Due to the dynamic, demanding, logistically challenging and time-sensitive nature of these operations, missions have become increasingly dependent on helicopters to effectively implement their mandates. Yet UN peacekeeping missions face a critical shortage of military helicopters. Resolution of the force generation challenges for helicopters requires a multifa…

  • Thinking in Pictures

    Alison SinclairARTICLEBulletin of Spanish Studies2011

    This article considers the phenomenon of the heroic wrongdoer in the form of the bandit in Spanish literature and culture, and the implications of the re-formulation of this type in novels of the twentieth century that re-visit the ‘heroic’ period of Spain's political past in the form of the revolution of 1868. It takes Baroja's 1905 novel, La feria de los discretos and the first two novels of Valle-Inclán's trilogy, El ruedo ibérico, La corte de…

  • Trafficking Knowledge in Early Twentieth-Century Spain

    Alison SinclairBOOKTrafficking Knowledge in Early…2009Citada por: 4

    Spain's cultural and intellectual exchanges with Europe in the early decades of the twentieth century. This study makes an original contribution to scholarship by tracking and evaluating the significance of the various individuals and (particularly) institutions responsible for the traffic of ideas both between Spain and the outside world, and also within Madrid and the interior. This has not been attempted before, and it is a necessary supplemen…

  • Sex and Society in Early Twentieth Century Spain

    Alison SinclairBOOKSex and Society in Early…2007

    This book examines issues of sex and society in early twentieth-century Spain, and does so by using a specific case history, namely that of Hildegart Rodriguez (19141933) who came to be one of the central players in the Spanish chapter of the World League for Sexual Reform (WLSR). In all its diversity and with all its inbuilt contradictions the movement provides the complex backcloth for understanding the nature and activity of Hildegart, while h…

  • On a Mission

    Few journeys are innocent of agendas, and missions necessarily have explicit ones. Missionaries are sent, and while a fundamental part of their activity is to communicate with those they visit, equ

    (2004). ‘Telling it like it was’? the ‘Residencia de Estudiantes’ and its image. Bulletin of Spanish Studies: Vol. 81, Alternative Discourses in Early Twentieth-century Spain: Intellectuals, Dissent and Sub-cultures of Mind and Body, pp. 739-763

  • Intellectuals, dissent and sub-cultures of mind and body

    Alison Sinclair, Richard CleminsonARTICLEBulletin of Spanish Studies2004

    The ‘espanolisimo vinculo’1 that binds the monocultural and myopic forms of things Spanish to a reductive purity of things Castilian has, since Juan Goytisolo wrote these words in 1982, been mercil

  • Spain's love affair with Russia

    Alison SinclairARTICLEEuropean Review of History Revue…2004Referências: 1

    This article examines a specific case of identification and desire between two countries at the extremities of Europe. In a cultural love affair located largely in the imaginary, Russia constituted a desired and exotic brother for Spain, while its revolution provided the possibility of a realistic engagement with a different culture. Central to these writings is the figuring of Russia as the exotic woman. In the travel writings, despite periodic …

  • Setting up the interlocutor

    Alison SinclairARTICLEAnthropology and Medicine2003Referências: 1

    This paper considers two related but contrasting self-narratives of 1930s Spain, that of Hildegart Rodríguez, the youthful sex reformer who corresponded with Havelock Ellis, and that of Aurora Rodríguez Carballeira, her mother. The narrative of Aurora arises out of her arrest for the murder of Hildegart in 1933, and is composed partly of her account of herself at the murder trial, and partly by the case-notes compiled by the psychiatrists at Ciem…
