Abstract
- The book review discusses Miguel Ángel del Arco Blanco's work, "Crosses of Memory and Oblivion," which focuses on monuments to the fallen in the Spanish Civil War. The author's extensive study delves into the complex social attitudes and memory politics surrounding these monuments, shedding light on their historical significance. Through a combination of classic and new perspectives, the book explores the connections between monumentality, landscape, and evolving memory policies in Spain from 1936 to the present, appealing to a broad audience interested in Francoism and contemporary memory politics.
