Languages of Memories and Human Rights in the Southern Cone 1970-2022
Keywords:
Human Rights, Language, MemorySynopsis
This book talks about memories as a central node that undoes idle temporal linearity to give way to an evocation in which the future is an Ariadne's thread that weaves and knots together times. Approaching memories through the languages of culture also empowers us to break with the monotony of a single disciplinary voice and seek an epistemic articulation that is nourished by the Social Sciences, Humanities, and Arts in dialogue with other knowledge and life experiences. Multiple memories move through territories where reflection not only needs critical discourse but also poetry "in the first voice," narrative "in the first voice," or the collapse of genres, because the delimitation of the borders between them is too small for the voices that remember. Memories are also found in spaces, in search of a new semiosis of the past, that question monuments and heritage, or in philosophy that turns to bodies and photography to build a discourse that can glimpse what cannot be fully said.
