    Description: Travel experienced a high point in the interwar period with the beginning of mass tourism in Spain. While Spanish intellectuals visited Europe or America to define their identity and their position in the cultural field, the Spain of the Second Republic attracted many writers, scientists and artists from other countries, who found here one of the great cultural epicenters, but also a country where traditions and ways of life that resisted the push of modern life survived. The Civil War confirmed the idea that the Spanish landscape was the stage where the future of the world was beginning to be decided, and many European and American intellectuals came here in those years, while Renau began the evacuation of the Spanish artistic treasure to protect it from fascist barbarism. This book analyzes the vision of Spain and the world derived from the travels of Walter Benjamin, Nancy Cunard, Walter Starkie, Ortiz Echagüe, Mª Teresa León, Concha Méndez, Mijail Koltsov or the collaborators of the travel magazine Oasis -directed by the engineers Vicente Olmo and Silverio de la Torre-, but also the experience of the inner journey of many of them and the influence of those cultural experiences.

    Description: Los viajes vivieron un momento álgido en el periodo de entreguerras con el comienzo del turismo de masas en España. Mientras los intelectuales españoles visitaban Europa o América perfilando su identidad y su posición en el campo cultural, la España de la Segunda República atrajo a muchos escritores, científicos y artistas de otros países, que encontraron aquí uno de los grandes epicentros culturales, pero también un país donde pervivían tradiciones y maneras de vivir que se resistían al empuje de la vida moderna. La Guerra Civil confirmó la idea de que el paisaje español era el escenario donde se comenzaba a dirimir el futuro del mundo, y muchos intelectuales europeos y americanos recalaron aquí en esos años, mientras Renau iniciaba la evacuación del tesoro artístico español para protegerle de la barbarie fascista. Este libro analiza la visión de España y el mundo derivada de los viajes de Walter Benjamin, Nancy Cunard, Walter Starkie, Ortiz Echagüe, Mª Teresa León, Concha Méndez, Mijail Koltsov o los colaboradores de la revista de viajes Oasis -dirigida por los ingenieros Vicente Olmo y Silverio de la Torre-, pero también la experiencia del viaje interior de muchos de ellos y la influencia de esas experiencias culturales.
