Abstract

Max Aub, one of the three most outstanding novelists of the post Spanish Civil War, is known also as a story writer, poet, critic, and essayist. Aub is not as well known in the theater because almost all of his dramatic works were written while he was in exile. Some have been staged by groups of amateurs which have not reached the general public. Aub, German by ancestry, French by birth, Spanish by sentiments, and Mexican by recognition, has written an important group of works--in the technical as well as in the literary sense. As an author, he was compelled by circumstances to adopt the role of witness to the chaotic and bloody epoch in which lived.
