Nova Ibèria (Catalan: New Iberia) was a monthly illustrated propaganda magazine which was published in Barcelona, Spain, in 1937 during the civil war. Its subtitle was Revue mensuelle illustrée (Catalan: Illustrated monthly magazine).[1]
History and profile
[edit]Nova Ibèria was established by the Commission for Propaganda of the Generalitat of Catalonia in Barcelona in 1937.[1][2] The first issue of the magazine appeared in January that year.[1] The magazine was a propaganda publication and was started during the civil war to disseminate news and reports about the activities of the Republican Catalan forces.[1] It was published by the Propaganda Commissariat in large format in Catalan, but also featured articles written in French and English.[3][4] The magazine also had a Spanish sister magazine.[3]
Nova Ibèria employed the photographs and posters to support Republican forces based in Catalonia.[4] Josep Sala and Margaret Michaelis, a Polish-Jewish photographer, were among the staff of the magazine.[5][6] The Catalan propaganda secretary, Jaume Miravitlles, published articles in the magazine.[2]
Nova Ibèria came out monthly until its closure in March 1937 and produced a total of four issues during its run.[1] The last issue of Nova Ibèria was a double issue.[7]
