«España ante la historia y ante sí misma (1898-1936)» is the historical essay by Julián Marías, published by Espasa-Calpe in paperback (139 pages).
Julián Marías examines Spanish cultural history between 1898 and 1936 and places the Generation of '98 as the starting point of an intellectual recovery. With Unamuno, Ortega y Gasset and Menéndez Pidal as references, he follows the rise of letters up to the civil war and asks why intellectuals did not prevent that outcome.
The work belongs to the Austral Collection (1987) of Espasa-Calpe, number 395; 1996 edition, in Spanish.
Recommended for readers interested in the intellectual history of Spain and in the debate on the role of culture in the face of the civil war.
