Cartographies of memories: languages of culture, bodies, and writings
Keywords:
memory, human rights, linguisticsSynopsis
This book compiles the discussions of the research team of Literary Cartographies of the Southern Cone: 1970-2025: Memory, Body, and Human Rights (SeCyT-CIFFyH-CIFAL). It also brings together some of the contributions presented at the Ateneo conference “Bodies, Community, and Freedom in the Context of Current Memory and Human Rights Agendas” held in 2024, as well as contributions from individuals with diverse academic, personal, and activist backgrounds. Cartographies of Memories: Languages of Culture, Bodies, and Writings is the result of a collaborative effort that brings together the diverse voices of authors committed to human rights, historical memory, and linguistic-semantic disputes about freedom, experience, and community. Each article reflects a unique contribution, but together they share a common goal: to offer a playful and nuanced view of the languages of culture in the face of current hegemonic discourses, in order to trace cartographies that allow us to move between memories, bodies, and writings.
