Alfredo Marqueríe

Meanwhile, like many in [[Spain]], Marquerie lost faith in the [[Spanish Constitution of 1931 |recently established]] [[Background of the Spanish Civil War#The “black biennium”|republican government]] during a period of fragmented politics and economic austerity. After 1933, in the evenings he was increasingly to be found frequenting the [[Falange Española |Falangist]] [[:es:ballena alegre|”ballena alegre” (”literary circle”)]] centred around [[José Antonio Primo de Rivera]], which held regular gatherings on the ground floor of the “Cervecería Lyon”.<ref name=AMMsegunAPQ/> <ref name=AMMsegunSL&CS>{{cite web |page=308 |title=Who and what was José Antonio Nieves Conde criticizing in the film “El inquilino”? – Note 1 |author1= Susan Larson (author) |author2=Carlos Sambricio (author) |date=15 October 2021 |isbn=978-1789384895 |work=Architecture and the urban in Spanish film |url=https://books.google.co.uk/books?id=A104EAAAQBAJ&pg=PT308&lpg=PT308&dq=|accessdate=12 October 2021}}</ref> Some of the more high-profile of the other particpants were the writer-diplomat [[:es:Agustín de Foxá |Agustín de Foxá]], the writer-commentator [[Rafael Sánchez Mazas]] and the writer [[:es:Víctor de la Serna |Víctor de la Serna]], along with the poet-politicians [[:es:José María Alfaro Polanco |José María Alfaro Polanco]] and [[Dionisio Ridruejo]].

Marqueríe was in [[Madrid]] when [[Spanish Civil War|war]] broke out. In September 1936 [[San Sebastián]] became one of the first major cities [[War in the North|to fall to]] [[Nationalist faction (Spanish Civil War)|the nationalist armies]] commanded by [[Francisco Franco|General Franco]]. Very shortly after that, Alfredo Marqueríe relocated from Madrid to [[San Sebastián]] which became his home for the rest of the war, from where he wielded his pen in support of the [[Falange Española |Falangist]] cause.
