Abstract

During the forty years of Franco’s dictatorship there were a lot of different types of repression, but this paper is focused only in the literary repression. Literature was under the Administration’s charge, that is to say, it was under Franco’s government control. Therefore, a lot of literary works had to went through a censorship. This censorship was in charge of modifying and/or omit passages that were antagonistic to Francoism ideology, which a lot of times acted for propagandistic purposes. So, the censors looked after the literature with the aim of that the publications in Spain were according to its dictatorship. In this project, I am going to explain how they applied, or wanted to apply, the censorship over the literary works: what they kept in mind and what patterns took in order to modify or forbid a work. I will carry though the paper by analyzing the book entitled Por quién doblan las campanas by Ernest Hemingway, published in Spanish by Grupo Planeta in 1968. Therefore, in this paper I will focus in briefly explaining this cultural repression. Henceforth I will focus on the Hemingway’s book, which was never censured but it was published under the silence procedure. Nevertheless, in different documents of the Archivo Nacional de la Administración (AGA), located in Alcalá de Henares, we can see how the censor indicated some pages in which would be necessary to do some modifications or omissions, which I am going to analyze and commentate by basing myself on the Francoism morality.
