Abstract

Wyndham Lewis’s works remained untranslated into Spanish for almost a century, being one of the most peculiar cases in the Spanish literary world. The first complete translation was not published until 2005 (Dobles fondos, trans. M. Temprano). Even if many censored translations during Franco times were revised and published thanks to the flourishing period in the Spanish publishing sector in the first years of democracy, not a single work by Lewis was chosen. This article analyses his reception throughout different stages of the 20th century to analyse whether he was clearly censored in Spain or if, on the contrary, he was the victim of certain disconnected factors that made him fall into oblivion, despite his important contribution as an artist and a writer.

Keywords: Modernism; translation; censorship; Wyndham Lewis; fascism.
