"In the best tradition of contemporary art historical scholarship, Professor Ellen C. Oppler has organized her anthology to view "Guernica" from the broadest perspectives possible. The book deals with the rich past and recent history of the painting and its political and social implications. Here are German military documents, translated for the first time, other eyewitness accounts of the bombing, early Marxist criticism of "Guernica," and, finally, some selections demonstrating its symbolic importance during protests against the war in Vietnam.
The distinguished art historians and critics who have contributed essays about "Guernica" -- and such related works as "Minotauromachy," "Dream and Lie of Franco," and "The Charnel House" -- include Meyer Schapiro, Otto Brendel, Rudolph Arnheim, Alfred Barr, William Rubin, and Clement Greenberg. Responses by contemporary American painters Ad Reinhardt, Robert Motherwell, and Darby Bannard, as well as some writings by the European writers Garcia Lorca, Paul Eluard, and Fernando Arrabal also are represented.
