Abstract

Joaquín Edwards Bello, Vicente Huidobro, Alberto Romero, and Luis Enrique Délano all wrote chronicles on the Spanish Civil War. Whereas Edwards Bello wrote about the conflict from Chile, without any direct contact with the war—though his deep knowledge of Spain endows his particular account with interpretive authority—, the other three were direct eye witnesses of particular instances of the war in Madrid. As supporters of the Spanish Republic, their chronicles not only inform on the events they were witnessing but express as well the brimming emotion that charges their texts with autobiographical implications. These writers’ personal experience of the war strengthened their bonds with the city of Madrid., thereby influencing their lives and their writing in different ways and to varying extents
