Abstract

This article presents the long report, hosted by the Fundación Nacional Francisco Franco and unpublished to date, that the Jesuit Father Sierra wrote for Franco on Hugh Thomas's book, The Spanish Civil War. As such, it is an invaluable primary document to provide empirical content both to the forms of self-narration of the Franco regime towards its founding event, the Civil War, and to the mechanisms of knowledge that Franco could have had about external debates (but also internal ones), on issues of the first order such as the internationalization of war, the political construction of the State or the violence against civilians, soldiers or priests.
