Synopsis

This is part of a revolution in historical research that uses personal narratives and life histories to re-examine the past and challenge misinterpretations in earlier studies. These analyses overturn previous theories about the organisation and leadership of the anarchist movement, providing a new chronology for the tragic uprising that tilted Spain toward civil war.
