Lisbon center of Instituto Cervantes
The Lisbon center of Instituto Cervantes organized a Symposium on the Spanish Civil War: crossing borders 70 years later. The exhibition "Correspondents on the Spanish Civil War" reflects, along the selected 30 chronicles, the evolution of the war from the point of view of the several authors.
The left panel shows excerpts of Hemingway's chronicles for "The New Republic" on the Teruel front. The right is about the Portuguese-American John dos Passos (for Esquire) and Martha Gellhorn (for Colliers) in Madrid at the Florida Hotel.Other names included in the exhibition are the Portuguese journalists Mário Neves, Félix Correia and Artur Portela, the French Antoine de Saint-Exupéry and the US journalist Jay Allen.
Note: Unfortunately I wasn't able to visit exhibition earlier. It'll end next Friday (November 10th).
