Juan Luis Porcar Orihuela.
A country in gray and black. Historical memory and Francoist repression of Castelló: «The repression of women during Francoism (prisons, punishments, daily violence,...) inserted in an authoritarian, patriarchal and hierarchical regime that promoted the ideal of a submissive woman without social projection or personal fulfillment. The women (daughters, mothers and sisters) of the victims of the repression were left in charge of broken homes and suffered the consequences of the disintegration of many families with the men dead, imprisoned or exiled; they suffered a double process of social exclusion, as women and as reds. Women suffered all kinds of humiliation (haircuts, ingestion of castor oil, bribes,...) imprisonment and rape, in addition to the loss of spaces of freedom conquered during the republican period.»
