Abstract
En este artículo se analiza el mundo editorial y librero del exilio español republicano en América Latina y en Francia. Las condiciones de publicación fueron más difíciles en el país galo debido a la condición socioprofesional de los exiliados, al conflicto bélico mundial y a la cuestión lingüística. En concreto se aborda la experiencia editorial y librera de Antonio Soriano, propietario de la Librairie Espagnole de París desde 1948. Este establecimiento se convirtió en referente y paso obligado de todos los disidentes del franquismo. Aparte de contribuir a la difusión de la cultura española silenciada por los vencedores, publicó libros muy significativos en el contexto cultural del exilio.
This study analyzes the publishing and bookselling world of Republican exile circles in France and Latin America following the Spanish civil war. Publishers ran into difficulties in France thanks to their social and professional status, the onset of the Second World War, and the language barrier. In this context the evolution of the publisher and bookseller Antonio Soriano, the owner of the Librairie Espagnole in Paris since 1948, proved exceptional. This bookstore became a landmark and meeting place for all dissidents during the Franco period. Soriano contributed to diffusing strains of Spanish culture silenced by the victors of the civil war, in addition to publishing books that played an important role in Republican exile culture.
