Abstract


The present article delves into the purge file on the Professor and literaty historian Ángel Valbuena Prat. In 1943, Valbuena was forcefully removed from his teaching post at the Faculty of Arts in Barcelona and sent to that in Murcia. This administrative measure was mainly motivated by certain aspects of his Historia de la literatura española (A History of Spanish Literature; Barcelona, 1937). The analysis carried out in what follows throws light on how the repression enforced by Franco’s dictatorship affected the university life of the period, while simultaneously providing information on the reception and history of one of our most prestigious works of literary historiography in the 20th century.
