Thesis statement

During the spanish civil war there was a big impact on the government and the people of spain. Both Fascist and republicans.

Research Question (refined)

How were the people of Spain affected with the Spanish civil war? ( Fascist-Republicans)

QQC

Quote: " Show us how to die, you who have always done the killing" (Ernest Hemingway for whom the bell tolls)pg.101

Question: Is Ernest Hemingway favoring one side over the other ?

Comment: I fell that this is a very biased question because it is very one sided. It must feel very ironic for the person being asked this question because he is a civil. What is going on right now is that pablo is arguing with a civil telling him how he kills without regret and just telling him off. That's when the quote comes out. I think that the quote is trying to say that if you do something a lot shouldn't you know the outcome of what is going to happen. That is what i think it means.

Bibliography

Anderson, James,The Spanish Civil War.88 press road: Greenwood press 2003

The book spanish civil war by James Anderson is a very informative book. This book talked about the problems that spain was facing leading to the civil war. It had alot of dates and times of events. I found this book very helpful and enlightening.

Some critisims i have for this source is that it seems one sided. It has very few prespectives (points of view). I feel like this barely passes as a reliable source.

For whom the bell tolls by Ernest Hemingway. Well what is going on in the book is the spanish civil war of 1936-37. This book is about an american named Robert Jordan who fights for what he beleives in the spanish mountains. So far in the book there has been a limited number of characters. Everyone of those characters has a specific role in the book. The bad thing about this book is that it is hard to understand who is the fascist and the republicans. The spanish revolution took place in 1936 in spain. It took place because of all the unemployment occuring during that time, A lot of people were being laid off. What was the leading cause to the spanish civil war?
