Resumen del Libro:
The main objective in this dissertation is the diachronic examination of novels that carry out the representation of antifrancoist guerrilla fighters and how their obliterated memory emerges in Spanish society. In order to accomplish this goal the introductory chapter examines various narrative, rhetorical and theoretical discourses, exploring the intimate relationship between History, Literature, and Memory through the lens of Foucault, Hutcheon, Barthes and White, among others. The second chapter covers the analysis of texts written during or immediately after the war: Cumbres de Extremadura by Jose Herrera Petere (1938), Este tiempo amargo by Pablo de la Fuente (1944), Juan Caballero by Luisa Carnes, La sierra en llamas by Angel Ruiz Ayucar (1953), Testamento en la montana by Manuel Arce (1956) and El ladrido by Oscar Muniz Martin (1969). The third chapter explores novels written during the democratic transition as well as contemporary fiction: La Pastora: el maqui hermafrodita by Manuel Vila Raso (1978), Luna de lobos (1985) by Julio Llamazares, Maquis (1997) by Alfons Cervera, Siempre quedara Paris (2005) by Ramon Acin, ¡Hasta siempre camaradas! (2006) by Raul Tristan and Caballeros de la Muerte (2006) by Alejandro Martinez Gallo. My study reflects how the antifrancoist guerrilla warfare is a clear example of a twofold search for personal and collective identity in Spain and shows how the writers approach to this subject has drastically changed over the years.
