En el pr\u00f3logo a la edici\u00f3n castellana de Se levantaron antes del alba\u2026<\/em> (1977), Arthur London, uno de los m\u00e1s carism\u00e1ticos comunistas depurados por la criba estalinista de la postguerra, explica c\u00f3mo esa fe iba hacia el resplandor de la revoluci\u00f3n y contra el oscurantismo de la reacci\u00f3n fascista de la burgues\u00eda:<\/p>\n

\u00abEl enemigo est\u00e1 enfrente, era preciso destruirlo porque de ello depend\u00eda la suerte de la humanidad. Entonces no ten\u00edamos ni el tiempo ni los medios para controlar lo que suced\u00eda a nuestras espaldas. La fe incondicional era uno de los rasgos de nuestra generaci\u00f3n. \u00bfAcaso un revolucionario no debe tener fe? Por supuesto que s\u00ed y la fe puede ensalzar a un hombre. Es necesaria para el que cree en la verdad de su combate, le permite realizarse e incluso superarse, le ayuda a ver permanentemente el otro extremo del t\u00fanel en lo m\u00e1s profundo de la noche. Sin ella \u00bfhubi\u00e9ramos afrontado d\u00eda a d\u00eda la muerte en los distintos campos de batalla, en la resistencia, en las c\u00e1rceles, bajo la tortura y en los campos de exterminio nazi?\u00bb.<\/p>\n

Tambi\u00e9n se\u00f1ala London que esa fe en aquellos a\u00f1os imped\u00eda reflexionar sobre las realidades de una revoluci\u00f3n inconclusa, de un partido, dice\u2026 \u00abque hab\u00edamos contribuido a crear y que, progresivamente, se hab\u00eda convertido en una abstracci\u00f3n\u00bb. Esa fe era especialmente necesaria en tiempos de lucha desde la clandestinidad y era invocada constantemente como la explicaci\u00f3n suprema de la cultura de la resistencia, como lo hizo Irene Falc\u00f3n en el debate con Claud\u00edn y Sempr\u00fan en 1964, cuando cit\u00f3 a Marx: \u00abLos comunistas son capaces de asaltar los cielos\u00bb.
\n\u00a0\u00a0 Asaltar los cielos<\/em>, he aqu\u00ed el impulso de Prometeo, un h\u00e9roe rom\u00e1ntico en opini\u00f3n de Rafael Argullol (El H\u00e9roe y el \u00danico<\/em>), que roba el fuego o el saber a los dioses para d\u00e1rselo a los hombres. En la cita de H\u00f6lderlin que justifica este aserto, el poeta ha brindado a los conspiradores rom\u00e1nticos del siglo XIX la audacia de dioses enfrentados a los due\u00f1os del cielo, traducidos en due\u00f1os de la Historia. Incluso los escritores comprometidos de la izquierda del siglo XX ser\u00e1n calificados de promet\u00e9icos porque como Camus o Sartre le han robado la palabra al poder para d\u00e1rsela a los justos que luchan por la emancipaci\u00f3n humana. Dicen los versos de H\u00f6lderlin:<\/p>\n

Y asegurado el fuego divino
\nse burla la porf\u00eda, y solo entonces
\nopta el atrevimiento, despreciando los senderos
\nmortales y aspirando a ser igual a los dioses<\/em>.<\/p>\n

Y como premio al esfuerzo de Prometeo:<\/p>\n

Al pueblo le suenan sus palabras
\nComo si vinieran del Olimpo:
\nLe agradecen
\nQue haya robado al cielo
\nLa llama de la vida y que
\nLa descubra a los mortales<\/em>.<\/p>\n

A esa disposici\u00f3n a asaltar los cielos, Teresa P\u00e0mies<\/a><\/span> la llamar\u00eda a\u00f1os despu\u00e9s \u00abromanticismo militante\u00bb.<\/p>\n<\/div>
