An invincible past

  • English has short conversations, and it is said to be a simple syntax. The German, for its part, spoke long words and pronounced a heavy syntax. That is why, in Spain, everyone knows English or, finally, is learning it, or wants to learn it. The German has not been so successful; who could say, for example, a monstrosity like Vergangenheitsbewältigung?

Master the past, face the past, analyze the critical past to know and work around the elements that cause pain and shame and regret. Something like that is that kilometric conversation. It is a concept used in the debates on Nazism. This seems to have had little success in Spain. At least in public discourse, because in academia, there are historians who have worried about the Francoist past. In the speech that emerges from the mouth of several Tertullians, Ernst Nolte's theses have been more widely disseminated – even if it is German, surely because it has a short name – by passing through the sieve of Pius Moaren: fascism is bad, but in the end it was a response to a higher risk, communism. Your translation: The Spanish Civil War began in 1934 and has been repeated by some journalists who invite all televisions.

For years, on multiple radios and not on minority presences, Franco has not been a dictator, but a former head of state.

For years, on multiple radios and not on minority presences, Franco has not been a dictator, but a former former head of state or, at most, a former dictator. For years, it has been customary at the Monument to the Fallen of Pamplona to hold masses in favour of the military coup Mola and Sanjurjo, it has been normal to praise fascism. It is therefore normal that the prison sentence should be demanded for journalists who have recorded these masses, even more so at a time when Spain is not so different from global trends. Vergangenheitsbewältigung, what is that?
