EDITORS COMMENTS
This evocative photograph captures the literary giants of the Spanish Generation of 1914, Ievich (b. 1871) and Baroja (b. 1872), in deep conversation at the Casern de Iztea, a popular gathering place for intellectuals in the early 20th century. The Generation of 1914, also known as the Generation of '98 due to the year of the disaster that sparked their disillusionment with Spanish society, was a group of writers and artists who sought to challenge the political and social norms of their time. Ievich, whose real name was José Martínez Ruiz, was a prolific journalist, essayist, and playwright. He was a vocal critic of the Spanish monarchy and the colonialist policies that fueled the Spanish-American War. Baroja, whose real name was Pío Baroja y Nessi, was a novelist, short story writer, and essayist. He is best known for his novels "La Casa de las Siete Chimneys" and "The Last Days of the Condor," which explored themes of social decay and human suffering. The photograph was taken in 1919, a year marked by political turmoil and social unrest in Spain. The country was on the brink of a civil war that would last for three years and leave a deep scar on its history. The image of Ievich and Baroja, two of the most prominent figures of the Generation of 1914, deep in conversation, serves as a poignant reminder of the intellectual and artistic ferment that characterized this period in Spanish history. The photograph is a testament to the power of dialogue and the importance of intellectual exchange in shaping the course of history. It is a reminder of the role that writers and artists play in challenging the status quo and inspiring change. The Casern de Iztea, with its rustic charm and picturesque surroundings, provides the perfect backdrop for this moment of intellectual exchange, highlighting the connection between nature, creativity, and the human spirit.
