Excerpt: ...pearl and tortoise-shell hung by the window, near a large and splendid mirror; on one side was a small Saint Catherine, a masterpiece of Lionardo, and on the other that inimitable Madonna of Raffaelle, called for its surpassing beauty the Pearl; and costly hangings of damask shaded an alcove and bed, where, supported by a duena, lay a lady, who, but for the stifled and just audible sobs which proceeded from her, would have seemed, from the motionless repose of her form and of her beautiful but pallid features, to be past all art of the leach, and all resources of human skill. A moment's glance at the apartment sufficed to show its contents to El Valenciano; and he had but a moment wherein to observe them; for the fearful voice of the cavalier hastily commanded him to perform his office on the arm of the lady. Gil Cano started: --was it a work of cure, or of death, which he was called upon to execute? The mysterious secrecy of his introduction; the statue-like stillness of his patient, and yet the unambiguous accents of mortal sorrow, which broke from that young and lovely being; the stern bearing of the masked cavalier;--these were elements of speculation, which forced upon his mind the suspicion that he was to be made the instrument of some cruel husband, perhaps, to disguise to the world, under the forms of medical aid, the murder of an erring or it might be an injured wife. His soul revolted at the act; he fell on his knees before his conductor; he begged, he prayed, to be released from the task to which he was ordered. But what availed words? He addressed a being deaf to pity, incapable of being shaken by remonstrance or petition; and he was compelled to apply the lancet to the veins of the passive victim, as victim he could no longer..

Download or read book Homage to Catalonia written by George Orwell and published by E-Kitap Projesi & Cheapest Books. This book was released on 2023-11-27 with total page 274 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Homage to Catalonia is George Orwell's personal account of his experiences and observations fighting for the POUM militia of the Republican army during the Spanish Civil War. The war was one of the defining events of his political outlook and a significant part of what led him to write in 1946, "Every line of serious work that I have written since 1936 has been written, directly or indirectly, against totalitarianism and for Democratic Socialism, as I understand it." The first edition was published in the United Kingdom in 1938. The book was not published in the United States until February 1952, when it appeared with an influential preface by Lionel Trilling. The only translation published in Orwell's lifetime was into Italian, in December 1948. A French translation by Yvonne Davet-with whom Orwell corresponded, commenting on her translation and providing explanatory notes-in 1938-39, was not published until five years after Orwell's death. Book Summary: Orwell served as a private, a corporal (cabo) and-when the informal command structure of the militia gave way to a conventional hierarchy in May 1937-as a lieutenant, on a provisional basis, in Catalonia and Aragon from December 1936 until June 1937. In June 1937, the leftist political party with whose militia he served (the POUM, the Workers' Party of Marxist Unification, an anti-Stalinist communist party) was declared an illegal organisation, and Orwell was consequently forced to flee. Having arrived in Barcelona on 26 December 1936, Orwell told John McNair, the Independent Labour Party's (ILP) representative there, that he had "come to Spain to join the militia to fight against Fascism." He also told McNair that "he would like to write about the situation and endeavour to stir working class opinion in Britain and France." McNair took him to the POUM barracks, where Orwell immediately enlisted. "Orwell did not know that two months before he arrived in Spain, the [Soviet law enforcement agency] NKVD's resident in Spain, Aleksandr Orlov, had assured NKVD Headquarters, 'the Trotskyist organisation POUM can easily be liquidated'-by those, the Communists, whom Orwell took to be allies in the fight against Franco."

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: During the 20th-century, Spaniards and African-Americans shared significant cultural memories forged by the profound impact that various artistic and historical events had on each other. Addressing three crucial periods (the Harlem Renaissance and Jazz Age, the Spanish Civil War, and Franco's dictatorship), this collection of essays explores the transnational bond and the intercultural exchanges between these two communities, using race as a fundamental critical category. The study of travelogues, memoirs, documentaries, interviews, press coverage, comics, literary works, music, and performances by iconic figures such as Josephine Baker, Langston Hughes, and Ramón Gómez de la Serna, as well as the experiences of ordinary individuals such as African American nurse Salaria Kea, invite an examination of the ambiguities and paradoxes that underlie this relationship: among them, the questionable and, at times, surprising racial representations of blacks in Spanish avant-garde texts and in the press during the years of Franco’s dictatorship; African Americans very unique view of the Spanish Civil War in light of their racial identity; and the oscillation between fascination and anxiety when these two communities look at each other.
