The Deadly Dry Run for WW2 - The Spanish Civil War | BETWEEN 2 WARS I 1939 Part 1 of 3

On April 1, 1939, Pope Pius XII telegrams a Spanish general telling him: "With heart uplifted to the Lord, we sincerely give thanks along with Your Excellency, for this long-desired Catholic victory.” He is congratulating Francisco Franco on his victory in the Spanish Civil War, a conflict that has lasted nearly a thousand days and seen dehumanization of adversaries, terror bombing, and desperate…

Women's Blue and Black Hats, 1922

Les Idées Nouvelles | New Ideas

Toquet de panne noire et chute d'aigrettes noires.

Arlequin de genre en satin noir, et rubans de velours bleu.

Forme de style en larges rubans laques, noirs et bleus.

Black panne velvet Toque and falling black aigrettes.

Women's tricorn hat in black satin, plus blue velvet ribbons.

Wide glossy ribbons, black and blue, in the shape of a robe de style.

A Toque was a stiff hat originally worn on top of the head rather than down and around the forehead, though the style could be worn down the forehead as well. An aigrette is a plume of egret feathers, and can be worn on its own as hair decor or attached to another garment (as seen here).

"Forme de style" is in reference to the robe de style dress, which had the low waist of flapper dresses but had full, wide skirts reminiscent of panniers and court gowns of earlier centuries. What forme de style means here is that the hat is wide and droops slightly, mimicking the silhouette of these dresses.

Once again shoutout to my favorite FB group, "Historia radia w Polsce"

Thank you so much! My question is this: would 1922 still count as part of the art nouveau period? I'm asking because I wanna buy a historical murder mystery novel for a friend who likes art nouveau and while the cover is definitely art nouveau, covers can be inaccurate. Also, the novel is set in Vienna if that changes anything

The general consensus is that art nouveau lasted up until 1914 (the start of WWI), so that would be late for art nouveau. That being said the boundaries of art movements are almost always pretty squishy and I have seen a lot of art objects from the 20s that definitely fall into the art nouveau category.

Now, whether the person who designed the cover knows anything at all about art history is probably not so likely and art nouveau is a really misunderstood period in art history I think. At least by the general public. Honestly, unless it's a visual novel or a novel that focuses very heavily on artists, I can't imagine art nouveau having a big impact on the actual content of the book. And while I dont know specifics I feel like it being set in Austria in the interwar period does seem like something that would be more central to the book. Dunno! But if your friend is into that period in history and murder mysteries (which I am personally lol) it could still be a good gift

Can’t stop, won’t stop 😭

Have I got almost the entirety of Part 2 and just a smidge of Part 3 written before I’ve even finished the last few chapters of Part 1? 

Absolutely.

I gotta get it done soon or I’ll spoil the whole thing through 1938 😅

Bulgaria's Political Landscape in the Interwar Years

Seeds of Division

As the 1920s unfolded, Bulgaria found itself deeply divided, setting the stage for decades of political intolerance and uncontrolled violence.

The Rise of Red Terror

Inspired by Moscow, the Communist Party leaders embraced terror as a means of political struggle, leading to the initiation of the “red terror.” This dark chapter reached its peak on April 16, 1925, with a horrific explosion at the church of St. Sabbath in Sofia. The failed attempt on the life of the King and attending ministers resulted in the loss of hundreds of innocent lives. In response, the government unleashed a period of fierce “white terror,” marked by arrests, torture, and executions, causing international condemnation and a significant decline in government authority. By early 1926, Professor Tsankov resigned.

Lyapchev’s Attempt at Reconciliation

The subsequent government, led by Andrei Lyapchev, aimed at achieving national reconciliation and restoring part of Bulgaria’s international prestige. However Sightseeing Turkey, the rise of fascism in Italy and national-socialism in Germany led to the emergence of pro-fascist organizations in Bulgaria, notably the People’s Social Movement.

The Impact of the Great Depression

The Great Depression of 1929 further destabilized Lyapchev’s cabinet, as unemployment and impoverishment sparked social indignation. In the summer of 1931, the People’s Block coalition, led by Alexander Malinov, won a sweeping victory in parliamentary elections, but the government struggled to overcome the economic remnants of the global crisis.

The Emergence of the “Monarch-Fascist Dictatorship”

In 1933, Adolf Hitler’s National Socialist German Workers’ Party came to power in Germany, prompting Bulgaria to reevaluate its foreign policy. Following Hitler’s example, King Boris III sought to revise post-war borders. Despite not joining the Balkan Treaty Organization in 1934, Bulgaria faced internal strife and political turmoil.

In conclusion, the interwar years in Bulgaria were marked by a series of tumultuous events, including political violence, economic challenges, and shifting foreign policies. The nation grappled with internal conflicts and external influences that would shape its trajectory in the years to come.
