Abstract

Lino Novas Calvo published several short stories and poems as a result of his experience of the Spanish Civil War, but his journalist work is particularly interesting. He was one of the most prolific Spanish American journalists on the conflict, and wrote at least a hundred and fifty texts about the war while he was in Spain, which were published on both sides of the Atlantic. Although they have received little critical attention, the analysis of these documents (in this case, those published between October 1936 and October 1937 in the weekly magazine Ayuda) is doubly revealing: it shows the closeness of the chronicles to the world of literature and also, along with the author’s unquestionable political commitment, the persistence in his writing of an aesthetic quest.
