Aún no he leído A peninsula of empty housesamendment that addressed David Uclesask yourself, because to overcome perceptions, your mind turns to novels, and you would prefer to turn to books that played an important role in your educational years, when reading a literary work could change your view of the world and have a decisive influence on your future. News can always disappoint you, but books that shape your sensibility will never cheat you.
Please do not know David Uclés as the author and do not have any personal contact with him, if you like me for different reasons. The first one is sentimental and full of relevance, but this blog is like a psychiatric couch, so to speak, so no more confessions. Kill me and I’m sick serious heart problems.
In this case, if they were presented with a much older age and they seemed to have happily recovered, which made me very happy. In mine they gave dear 62 years, but thanks to the advances of medicine here now. Yes, with a clink stents in the coronary arteries, which allows me to decide that you are an example of transhumanism: half biology, half technology.
The second reason I like Uclés is about the decision not to participate in the Letras en Sevilla cycle I called the fashion man below A war we are all losing. Consultation Arturo Pérez-Revertethe quote was included among the conference participants José María Aznar and Iván Espinosa de los Monteros.
Although the series of conferences invoked the spirit of Manuel Chaves Nogales, I deplored the detectable hedor of revisionism. It’s best to record it José María Aznar refused to condemn the 1936 coupHe claims he cannot speak out against something his father, journalist Manuel Aznar, a subordinate army officer and Falange commander responsible for radio broadcasting and propaganda activities, was involved in.
Iván Espinosa de los Monteros is not – as has been said on various occasions – the story of the French soldier Eugenio Espinosa de los Monteros, but belongs to the same family of military-loving aristocrats. The forces of Eugenio Espinosa, the son of Ivan’s great-grandfather, were the first troops to march through Madrid after the fall of the legitimate government of the Republic. Eugenio’s paper for the sublevación was rewarded with an embassy in Nazi Germany, where he apparently failed to align himself with the regime.
in 2019 Iván Espinosa de los Monteros registered a bill in Congress which pedía derogación de la Ley de Memoria Histórica. The ultra-retired politician claimed that “you can’t live 40 years and throw them on the ground”. His words reflect an anti-democratic attitude similar to that of his ancestor, not a genuine desire for reconciliation or harmony.
Fourteen years of law should get to the bottom. Historians of great rigor such as Paul Preston or Julian Casanova have noted that soldiers they reached 100,000 people between 18 July 1936 and 1 April 1939. During the post-war period, the massacre continued, adding more than 50,000 victims.. The defeat was discovered in 1944, when the destruction of the Eje ya tropics became irreversible. In the end, Francoism was genocide.
undoubtedly, atrocities were also committed in the second zonebut they were not carefully planned from the beginning, until the cruel acts carried out by the militias of the political parties. The attack on the model prison in Madrid, the collapse of 4,000 people in Paracuellos or the massacre of 100 religious people in Barbastro caused devastation and shame for politicians such as Manuel Azaña, Indalecio Prieto, Julian Zugazagoitia or Julián Besteiro.
In return, Franco declared to American journalist Jay Allen that he would wage war at all costs. “Is it possible to reach the center of Spain?” asked the correspondent. Impávido, Franco replied: “At any cost”. While Azaña pedía “paz, piedad y pardón”, el general Yagüe alardeaba de fusilado and 4000 “rojos” en Badajoz.
in Madrid the anarchist Melchor Rodríguez, called “the red angel”, held the logró of Matanzas from Paracuellos and the palace of Viana was careful to offer refuge to people accused of desafección by the government. Their initiatives saved thousands of lives, but in some cases led to their confrontation with the Madrid Defense Council, which was controlled by the communists José Cazorla and Santiago Carrillo.
The French regime sentenced him to twenty years in prison and he completed only four years. As soon as he was released, he received offers to join the vertical union and began secret activities against the dictatorship, which cost him a prison term.
There is no similar number in the French ban and there is no need to risk it, unless The coupists considered the sublevación a campaign of extermination and they recognized the height of humanity in their enemies.
Civil War, when it comes down to it, we won’t lose it all. Republican Spain lost ita project that aimed to modernize the country and guarantee a regime of freedoms.
The failure of this project undoubtedly contributed to the revolutionary militiamen who played a major role in the repression in the republican rearguard, but the violence did not stop until the 1936 coup.
It is undeniable that there was political violence in Spain between 1931 and 1936but no more so than in France of this period or in the Weimar Republic. At that time, great social aspirations were warmly welcomed by revolutionary ideologies. Fascism and communism fought in the streets to enforce a social and political model of a totalitarian nature.
Manuel Chaves Nogales repudiaba esa dialecticabut I don’t think I’ll ever attend a day with Frank’s supporters. And I doubt very much that the gestures of brotherhood between Manuel Fraga and Santiago Carrillo, symbols of everything he hated, were celebrated.
Ana Iris Simón accused David Uclés of the fascism of anti-fascists. It is an unfair comment, which also ends abruptly with the hideous phrase attributed to Churchill: “The fascists of the future will be called anti-fascists”. No one actually knows what the phrase is, but it could be any number of politicians who confuse the liberalism of Stuart Mill with the ultraliberalism of Mile.
I find it particularly malicious to invoke the figure of Pasolini to confirm that Uclés subscribes to “the logic of how the end justifies the means.” The young writer Úbedy did not highlight violence or promote hatred. He was simply pointing out something obvious. Neither Aznar nor Spinosa de los Monteros deserve the label of democrats.
Aznar, the interviewed Pío Moa reader, left our country in an immoral and illegal war in Iraq, ruled with the mayor’s gang of corrupt ministers of recent history and demonstrated his machismo by introducing a pen to Marta Nebot’s school.
As for Espinosa de los Monteros, he fought in a xenophobic party that advocates massive deportations of immigrants, minimizes macho violence, eschews feminism and questions gay marriage.
In 2019, when Vox seemed set for a major electoral success, Espinosa de los Monteros appropriated a phrase from the imaginary teniente colonel William “Bill” Kilgore of Apocalypse now making fun of mied z izquierda on the triumph of ultraderech. “The scent enchants me as the morning progresses panic”exclaimed politician Vox.
Instead of the smell of panic, Kilgore celebrates the smell of napalm, the gelatinous gas that thousands of Vietnamese, including Phan Thị Kim Phúc, the New Year’s Eve girl who photographed Nick Ut after the army bombed the island. Toying with this analogy can only be classified as obscene.
I don’t think Ana Iris Simón would be too comfortable with Aznar and Espinosa de los Monteros. I prefer the dignity of David Uclés, whence no real hatred, no opportunism, no compromise.
Unfortunately, Uclés did not stay with the trend of ultrarealism, which is what his father hopes for. Not all young people will lose their Frankness. Some are very clear about what it meant at the time: repression, intolerance, torture, imprisonment, cultural diversity, religious fanaticism, censorship, homophobia and hatred of diversity.
Prometo sheet A peninsula of empty houses. I don’t want to make any judgments about the work, but I would like to reiterate that David Uclés liked it and all of us who would like to say to him on the other hand: “Please close the door when you go upstairs”.
