    In the paper under review the authors use integrable irreducible representations of generalized twisted affine Lie algebras to give a realization of the space of conformal blocks of conformal field theory on a stable algebraic curve. This allows the author to prove many of the basic properties of the conformal blocks, such as finite dimensionality of the space, invariance of the conformal blocks under suitable formal neighborhood changes, and the property of ``propagation of vacua'', which was discovered by \textit{K. Ueno} [in Lect. Notes Pure Appl. Math. 184, 603--745 (1997; Zbl 0873.32022)]. Finally, the authors give a relative local \(1\)-form around a fixed point of the order two automorphism of the curve.
