Adelina Kondrátieva

Adelina Kondrátieva (née Abramson; 1917 – 14 December 2012) was an Argentine-born Russian translator and Brigadista who participated in the Spanish Civil War on the Republican side.

For her subsequent dedication to that historical period, she was elected president of the Archive, War, and Exile Association [es] (AGE), and in 2009 she was granted a Spanish passport.

She subsequently worked as an interpreter at the service of Commander Hadzhi-Umar Mamsurov [ru], "advisor to Durruti in the defense of Madrid and organizer of the XIV Guerrilla Corps of the Republic".

[4][5] In 1938, the Abramson family returned to Moscow and Adelina entered the Workers' University for adults, specializing in the "history of the American trade union movement".

She dedicated the last period of her life to becoming involved in some of the most delicate chapters in the history of Spain, co-authoring works with Ángel Viñas and Paul Preston.
