Regne Unit. Voluntaris i voluntàries antifeixistes desapareguts a Catalunya durant la Guerra Civil

Abstract

[CA]: De les persones que van viatjar a l’Estat espanyol per combatre el feixisme durant la Guerra Civil, prop de 2.500 provenien del Regne Unit. La majoria van formar part del British Battalion, o batalló Britànic, de la XV Brigada Internacional, i d’altres van servir en altres unitats o als serveis sanitaris republicans. En aquest treball s’hi presenta, per primera vegada, una llista exhaustiva dels voluntaris antifeixistes del Regne Unit que van morir o van desaparèixer a Catalunya durant la Guerra Civil, i en la majoria de casos s’informa de manera precisa de l’espai on cadascuna d'aquestes persones podria haver mort o desaparegut.

Most of them served in the British Battalion, in the XV International Brigade, and others served in other units or in the Republican sanitary services. This work presents, for the first time, an exhaustive list of the antifascist volunteers from the United Kingdom who died or disappeared in Catalonia during the Spanish Civil War, and in most cases, the area where each of these people could have died or disappeared is precisely reported.
