After travelling to Spain at the end of 1936 with the intention of working as a correspondent for a British socialist newspaper, thirty-three-year-old George Orwell decided to join the Republican ...efforts to overturn Franco's Nationalists in the Spanish Civil War. Having enrolled in the POUM militias, the young writer was soon forced to experience first-hand the hardships and dangers of trench warfare, before becoming involved in the Barcelona May Day street fighting and nearly being killed by a bullet on his return to the front line. Orwell's initial idealistic dreams of a victorious fight against fascism were gradually tainted by doubt and disillusionment as the divisions and infighting within the Republican coalition became apparent.Part war memoir, part tract, part exposé, Homage to Catalonia is a pivotal work in Orwell's oeuvre, and a key to understanding his political ideas and commitment to the socialist cause. Rejected by Orwell's long-standing publisher, Gollancz, on political grounds, it is here presented in its original version, as published by Secker & Warburg in 1938.

Un signo de la velocidad de los acontecimientos es que la edición no censurada de Mein Kampf de Hurst y Blackett, publicada hace solo un año, sea editada desde un ángulo favorable a Hitler. La ...intención obvia del traductor del prefacio y de las notas es atenuar la ferocidad del libro y presentar a Hitler de la manera más amable posible. Pues en esos días Hitler era aún respetable. Había aplastado al movimiento obrero alemán y, por ello, las clases propietarias estaban dispuestas a perdonarle casi todo. La izquierda y la derecha concordaban en la vacua noción de que el nacionalsocialismo era una mera versión del conservadurismo.
Vocal cord dysfunction (VCD) is a term that refers to unhappy adduction of the oral cords during inhalation and occasionally exhalation. It's a functional complaint that serves as an important ...mimicker of asthma. Vocal cord dysfunction can be delicate to treat as the condition is frequently unaccredited and misdiagnosed in clinical practice. Recognition of Vocal cord dysfunction in cases with asthma- type symptoms is essential since missing this opinion can be a hedge to adequately treating cases with unbridled respiratory symptoms. Although symptoms frequently mimic asthma, the two conditions have certain distinct clinical features and demonstrate specific findings on individual studies, which can serve to separate the two conditions. Also, operation of Vocal cord dysfunction should be directed at minimizing known triggers and initiating speech remedy, thereby minimizing use of gratuitous asthma specifics.
