This multi-authored volume offers the first extensive exploration of cultural memory in Portugal and Spain, two countries that are normally studied in isolation from one another due to linguistic divergences. The book contains an important theoretical survey of cultural memory today and a comparative analysis of the historical background influencing studies of memory in the Iberian Peninsula. It includes the work of eleven specialists on contemporary Spanish and Portuguese history, culture and literature and establishes a series of parallel themes that lace the chapters together: resistance; literary and popular representations of the figure of the dictator; gender; intergenerational links and changing paradigms of war stories; and the performance of memory. The essays gathered here will be of interest to scholars of both national cultures as well as those concerned with issues of memory, trauma and the historical legacy of war and dictatorship.

"The Latin American dictatorships of the 1970s-80s (dirty wars against civilian population) coincided with the period of women's liberation. Vol. deals with incursion and participation of women in all levels of society, but especially in the literary-political sphere. Work is concerned with how women writers responded to these regimes in Chile, Argentina, Brazil, and Uruguay through the literature of Cristina Peri Rosi, Diamela Eltit, Nélida Piñon, and Reyna Roffé. Theoretically well grounded in feminist and political theory and extremely well written, this lucid book represents a breakthrough in women's studies and a welcome respite from the feminist canon which has overworked the texts of a small number of women writers. Recommended as a point of departure for new studies on women"--Handbook of Latin American Studies, v. 58.

Infancias propone explorar la producción literaria de los hijos e hijas de las víctimas de la última dictadura argentina (1976-1983). Dos peculiaridades vuelven excepcional el aporte de esta comunidad cultural: la notable y fecunda cantidad de obras en diversos formatos artísticos -como la fotografía, el cine, la narrativa, la poesía, el teatro, el testimonio, la performance, la plástica, las instalaciones, los discursos críticos, los bolgs-, y las inéditas experiencias que allí se presentan, en especial las que remiten a la infancia bajo el terrorismo estatal.Si Walter Benjamin señaló la declinación tanto de la experiencia como de la posibilidad de narrarla por parte de quienes vivieron la Primera Guerra Mundial, la voz de esta segunda generación argentina muestra obstinadamente lo contrario. ¿En qué otras oportunidades la literatura argentina ha sido vehículo para explorar los avatares de los niños durante la dictadura, sus desafíos para vivir en la clandestinidad política, los nacimientos en maternidades de centros de detención, los secuestros y apropiaciones por parte de miembros de los servicios, las búsquedas de sus padres emprendidas en los inicios de su juventud o los procesos de recuperación de sus identidades sustraídas?Con un adecuado equilibrio entre rigor académico y fluidez narrativa, Teresa Basile ofrece un panorama exhaustivo de las producciones culturales sobre infancias atravesadas por el terrorismo de Estado.
