Description

The letter from Marià Rubió and Tudurí to Anatole de Monzie, written on May 28, 1938, is a key witness to the diplomatic activism of Catalan intellectuals during the Spanish Civil War. As president of the “Union Catalane pour la S.D.N.”, Rubió reports on the sending of a report to the British Foreign Office, with the aim of promoting European mediation in the conflict. It shows how Catalan civil society sought alliances and recognition at a critical moment for democracy in Europe.
