International volunteers in the Spanish Civil War negotiated fraught aspects of modernity, including links between technology and violence, the ethics of transnational engagement, and the interconnection between national identity and changing roles for women. To understand their experiences they drew on existing knowledge of Spain and a range of interpretive frameworks available to understand their life in war. Agnes Hodgson was an Australian nurse who volunteered for the Republicans. Her experiences, recorded in her diary, reflect neither the politically committed volunteer’s disillusionment nor the romance of war as confirmation of masculinity present in other narratives. Hodgson uses a tourist gaze to frame parts of her journey, a strategy also employed by Australians in earlier conflicts. Tourism in war reveals aspects of wartime leisure while providing an alternative model for reconciling traumatic experiences. The fusion of the genre of war testimony, which fundamentally relates change, with the genre of travel narrative, which traditionally projects stasis, disrupts the prevailing tropes of both genres.

西班牙内战中的游客凝视：手术与奇观之间的艾格尼丝霍奇森

西班牙内战中的国际志愿者就现代性的诸多方面进行了谈判，包括技术与暴力之间的联系、跨国参与的伦理，以及民族认同与女性角色变化之间的相互联系。为了了解他们的经历，他们利用了西班牙的现有知识和一系列可用于了解他们在战争中的生活的解释框架。Agnes Hodgson 是一名澳大利亚护士，曾为共和党志愿服务。她的日记中记录的她的经历既没有反映政治献身志愿者的幻灭，也没有反映战争的浪漫作为其他叙述中男性气质的确认。霍奇森用游客的目光来描绘她旅程的一部分，澳大利亚人在早期的冲突中也采用了这种策略。战争中的旅游揭示了战时休闲的各个方面，同时为调和创伤经历提供了另一种模式。战争见证类型从根本上与变化有关，与传统上投射停滞的旅行叙事类型的融合破坏了这两种类型的流行比喻。
