40999
The Spanish civil war resulted in the instalment of the fascist regime of Francisco Franco, who, despite many atrocities and persecutions, did not suffer the same fate as other fascist leaders. Franco, during his regime, rewrote Spanish history in a way to portray himself positively. He made use of censorship, rewrote school curriculums, and heavily oppressed dissidents. This project will use an analytical framework of historical memory, defined by Zhen Zheng Wang (2018), and derived from the works of Halbwachs (1950) and Olick (1999), applied to the collection of private stories forming collective memories of the Spanish civil war and its subsequent Franco regime. This project focuses on the construction of collective memory and its conversion to historical memory and is intended to introduce the structure used (Zheng Wang) and contextualise the problematics of Spanish politics in 1936 and 1939, periods when the two political systems were analysed are most evident. However, given that Franco’s regime endured until 1975, a broader contextualisation is presented to determine his historical legacy. The analysis uses revisionist articles, biographical books related to the themes and interviews to create a collective memory more aligned with verifiable facts about the Spanish civil war and its subsequent Fascist regime. The goal of this project is to gather qualitative data to create an interactive website. This website hosting and tools were provided by Scalar, a scholarly web platform designed to enrich intellectual potential. This web provides a platform to construct and compare collective and historical Spanish memories related this these periods
