The banality of censorship of Nova Cançó | Literature

The Nova Cançó will be the most important mass cultural phenomenon in Catalonia of the second half of the 20th century, both for the power of its artistic dimension and for the ideological influence that it will exert among various generations of depoliticization by the dictatorship. In fact, the awareness of this transcendence will be immediate, as evidenced by the brief biography that Joan Fuster will dedicate to Raimon in 1964. From that lucid book, the library on the movement would not stop believing. From the pioneering chronicle of Jordi Garcia Soler to the books of Antoni Batista, who passed through the doctoral thesis of Professor Llorenç Soldevila, who arrived at the end of 1991. Aleshores, from the point of view of history, faces everything that was per fer i l ‘newspaper library will be the initial source. After arriving at the arxius. At the beginning of the 21st century, by professor Borja de Riquer, sense fer soroll, ethnomusicologist Maria Salicrú-Maltas will begin a methodical investigation to determine how Franco’s censorship will interfere with that movement. All alone he has achieved a colossal achievement, comparable to what a research group did. He has spoken with everyone. He has found all the information on which he has pogut trobar a paper. Arxius local, provincial, state. The thesis will arrive in 2021. It is pending.

Salicrú-Maltas ara publica That song, no! It is not a good version of the seva tesi, but it is unfortunate that from time to time it embeds documents or lyrics of mutilated or prohibited songs. El seu objectiu is an other. He explains all the details of how censorship works and, in first person, explains how he has been discovered for two decades. This is the “quest” about how the research of the documentation and the interviews with the testimonies are going to turn into an adventure that has given meaning to life. There is a scene that concentrates the honest truth, sometimes naïve, of the book. Stretching a file, it is clear to see that the BOE’s exemplars are used in the case of people who have submitted to oppositions to work against the censorship of the Ministry of Information and Tourism. After locating the phone book and the trick so that you can connect and know which people are the ones who were the best. If these only coincide with the signature of the reports kept in the archives, they are the ones that prohibit recording, broadcasting or performing songs at concerts, bingo. But creating all these facts was not easy. One day he will visit a old censor who will dedicate a book to him. When leaving home, it is safe to wait for the metro. “I had adrenaline in my brain.” Look at the dedication. “L’impacte del que vaig veure is hardly able to explain both sides.” That’s him, he thinks he thinks the protagonist of The life of the other. José Mampel Llop was Reader 13. She had said that there was no censoring of songs, but she, indignant, had proven that there was. His passion contrasts with the disturbing and extremely human banalitat that is trobar at every moment. There were secretaries who at the matins were playing the mumps because Maria del Mar Bonet couldn’t sing ‘Que volen aquesta gent’, but at night they came to escort the Mallorcan singer because she loved the music. Censorship was a machinery at the service of the national-Catholic ideology of the Franco regime, but the people who worked there simply did nothing to guarantee a sou sense fer-ne massa cabal.
