Why is GUERNICA important in the spanish history?

Guernica is historically the seat of the parliament of the province of Biscay, whose executive branch is located in nearby Bilbao. In prior centuries, Lumo had been the meeting place of the traditional Biscayan assembly, Urduña and chartered towns like Guernica were under the direct authority of the Lord of Biscay, and Enkarterri and the Durango area had separate assemblies. All would hold assemblies under local big trees. On April 26, 1937, during the Spanish Civil War, the town was razed to the ground by German aircraft belonging to the Condor Legion, sent by Hitler to support Franco's troops. For almost four hours bombs rained down on Gernika in an "experiment" for the blitzkrieg tactics and bombing of civilians seen in later wars.The town was devastated, though the Biscayan assembly and the Oak of Guernica survived. Pablo Picasso painted his famous "Guernica" painting to commemorate the horrors of the bombing and René Iché made a violent sculpture the day after the bombing. The town was devastated, though the Biscayan assembly and the Oak of Guernica survived.


Where to see Picture Picasso dove with Peace Sign?

The dove is in the Guernica picture that represents the war in the Spanish town of Guernica on the 27th April 1937. the dove is by the horses head but only the body is white the rest is black. The dove represents the fact that there is no peace left in that place so it is fleeing.hope this helps : )

What time did the play The glass menagerie take place?

There is no specific date that is set by Tenesse Williams, however, if you examine the facts given by the playwright one can come to a close estimate. In Tom's opening monologue he hints to the fact that the Bombing of Guernica just recently happened and his mother, Amanda, makes multiple comments throughout the play suggesting that summer is just around the corner such as, "It feels like summer already." Since The bombing of Guernica happened on April 26, 1937 and summer begins a little over halfway into June, and factoring in Amanda commenting on the heat, one can approximate the time that the Glass Menagerie took place to be anywhere from May to Early June of 1937.
