The Basque Poetic Tradition

The confrontation between the Franco regime and Basque nationalists produced a series of political assassinations, trials, and reprisals. This historical study presents a vivid account of a century of ferment to establish an independent Basque country. It recounts the way that nationalism became a political force within Basque culture and how that movement subsequently splintered into numerous groups with diverse ideologies, tactics, and goals.Gorka Aulestia is the author of 'The Basque Poetic Tradition' with ISBN 9780874170429 and ISBN 0874170427.
