From Oblivion to Life: The Recovery of Intangible Cultural Heritage through the Anti-Aircraft Shelters of the Spanish Civil War
Round 1
Reviewer 1 Report
Comments and Suggestions for Authors
The premise of the article is interesting; however, it is woefully lacking in data, and the conclusions are not at all substantiated. A basic flaw is basing the conclusion on the assessment of the partial interview of one informant. As presented, the conclusions are not credible because of the absence of scholarly rigor and documentation.

Reviewer 3 Report
Comments and Suggestions for AuthorsThe paper has a very high relevance in what concerns the topic. Although, the methodology should be cleared since authors are using methods from different social sciences and the conclusions presented are too many for being based on the interviews. The role of the interviews should be better explained. What conclusions are based only on the interviews, how the subjectivity of their interpretation was approached? Besides the structure of the paper should be improved specially the methodology (the presentation of one interview isn´t enough to the wide range of conclusions) because is not clear what methods provided the different conclusions.

Round 2
Reviewer 1 Report
Comments and Suggestions for AuthorsReviewer's Comments
The many short paragraphs, beginning in Section 1.3 and continuing need to be expanded and organized in a consistent narrative flow. Paragraphs should not be a single sentence.
There should be more discussion of the air-raid shelters in Szczecin, Poland in terms of how the subsequent history of their existence provides an apt parallel for the study of the Alicante shelters (lines 74-75).
In line 182 there is mention of the narrative of a woman who endured the bombing, and the authors indicate that they will focus on the narrative. That is not done subsequently in the article.
Why are there quotation marks at the end of line 202?
Why are there quotation marks at the end of line 207?
The text contained in fig. 2 is too small to be readable.
Line 258 – dynamzsation – this surely is a misspelling.
Repetition of total number of visits to the shelters needs to be remedied.
