Orientalism, Edward Said, The Second Spanish Republic, Historical narrativesAbstract
The article analyses, through the lens of Edward Said's orientalism theory, three works by Ernest Hemingway related to the Spanish Civil War. The aim of this paper is to highlight the orientalist perspective driven by the author to create a specific narrative about Spain, that diverges from historical facts, but answers to various political interests of The Communist International.Downloads
