‘Trustworthy Allies’: International Organisations, Ernest Hemingway, Women Activists, and Spanish Republican Exiles in Cuba by Daniel Fernandez Guevara

“…Thus, this essay addresses a crucial lacuna in the historiography by examining how US aid groups dealt with the crisis on the island. Buoyed by files in the American Friends Service Committee archive and my research in Cuba, I reveal that the confluence of Cuban state hostility against Spanish exile settlement, US private aid´s penchant for advancing a ‘national’ image abroad, and the author Ernest Hemingway´s close relationships to the ‘loyalist’ cause and its exiles, resulted in a selective distribution of aid by mostly women at ‘neutral’ private aid organisations. …”

“I shall not concern the Union in this Discourse” : Prétérition et engagement dans l’écriture pro-unioniste de Daniel Defoe, voyageur en Écosse by Emmanuelle PERALDO

“…Several genres are analyzed in this essay but the stress is laid more particularly on a poem, Caledonia (1706) and a travel narrative dealing with the economic situation of Great Britain published between 1724 and 1726, the Tour thro’ the Whole Island of Great Britain. Defoe’s position as a secret spy for the government cannot but give a particular color to his literary output, and despite his strong commitment to the cause of the Union, he had to use a “cautious rhetoric” and to play a sort of hide-and-seek game with his readers. …”
