Exilios de Arturo Barea

Elżbieta Bender Logo ORCID

Abstract

The article analyzes the literary works of Arturo Barea that deal with the experiences of his two exiles: the French and the British. In The Clash Barea evokes his sad life in Paris: great poverty and uneasiness caused by the growing resentment of the French towards the Spanish exiles on the eve of World War II. In contrast, the British exile (shown in the stories Teresa and A Spaniard in Hertfordshire) appears as a mostly positive experience, as Barea achieves a certain economic and emotional stability. Nevertheless, there are moments (reflected in his letters and his novel The Broken Root) in which the author suffers from nostalgia for his homeland and remorse for having abandoned his children in Franco’s Spain.
