Of the two you choose, one must be integrated as an indirect quote (paraphrase) and the other as a direct quote (verbatim, this means leave it in English). Paraphrasing ≠ translating, on your own or with an automatic translator. Paraphrasing = reading it, comprehending it, and re-stating it in your own words. This is hard to do from one language to another, so I recommend looking at the quotes you've chosen and thinking about which would be easier to convey, for you, in Spanish and which presents a trickier challenge for paraphrasing. ------------------------------------------------------------------------- This meant that the military coup unleashed what was in effect a series of culture wars: urban culture and cosmopolitan lifestyles versus rural tradition; secular against religious; authoritarianism against liberal political cultures; center versus periphery; traditional gender roles versus the ‘new woman’; even youth against age, since generational conflicts were also present. (2) This rural society was serviced by the populations of agrarian or market towns, inhabited by a provincial middle class of similar social attitudes. It was a rigid world bound by the ties of custom and tradition in which a conservative form of Catholicism provided the common language, value, and culture. (4) But what caused most popular offence was the Republic’s interference with the Catholic culture that framed social identities and daily life…This was a world of private and family devotions, but also of communal piety, where deeply felt emotions had as much to do with an allegiance to a way of life and a specific place (the immediate locality or patria chica) as with religious faith or spirituality per se. (11) Conservative Catholics in 1930s Spain were outraged that their beliefs and religious practices were being constrained, but they themselves entertained no concept of civil and cultural rights within the Spanish state for those professing other religions, still less for freethinkers or atheists. (12-13) People in villages and small towns who had entertained vague Republican sympathies suddenly felt compelled to align themselves publicly with the new rebel authorities in order to protect their families, even if this sometimes meant betraying friendships and personal allegiances. (23) So we see the complex and contradictory motives that so often lay behind the apparently binary choices made by people in the wake of the rebellion. Indeed, this forced reductiveness, the obligation to ‘take sides’, constitutes the coup’s first, and most enduring, act of violence. (23) While in Republican territory the objective for some individuals was millenarian – killing as a means of achieving tabula rasa and with it a brave new world – in rebel areas killing was widely perceived as a cleansing action designed to rid the community of sources of ‘pollution’ and the dangers they supposed. (29) People of all ages and conditions fell victim to this ‘cleansing’. What they had in common was that they were perceived as representing the changes brought by the Republic…It also meant ‘cleansing’ people who symbolized cultural change and thus posed a threat to old ways of being and thinking: progressive teachers, intellectuals, self-educated workers, ‘new women’.
