| Popis: | In this chapter I aim to trace underexplored aspects concerning the role of translators and interpreters in the International Brigades drawing on previous work on translation and conflict; historical accounts of the Spanish Civil War; monographic studies on the International Brigades; memoirs and narratives of foreign civil war veterans; and autobiographies by International Brigade translators. A special focus is given to the analysis of how competent translators and interpreters managed communication between brigaders of different nationalities; the multilingual publications edited by the battalions; the performance of their duties in heterogeneous military operations; and the impact of the translator’s ideology in a climate of political division and suspicion which cast a dark shadow over the Republican war zone throughout the conflict. |
