Title: Love and Death in the Time of the Spanish Civil War (1936-1939)
Author/Creator: Katerina Clark
Publication Details: Moscow, the Fourth Rome: Stalinism, Cosmopolitanism, and the Evolution of Soviet Culture, 1931-1941, pp.242-275
Annotation: Cultural history of 1930s Moscow focused on its transnational intellectual exchanges. Clark discusses Mikhail Koltsov, Soviet journalist, publisher, and real-life model for Karkov of For Whom the Bell Tolls and gives an assessment of differing narrative strategies found in literature and film produced by non-Spanish sympathizers of the Republican cause. Briefly examines For Whom the Bell Tolls thematic treatment of writing, noting the novel s romantic exuberance in contrast to The Spanish Earth s dispassionate understatement.
