HUAIQUIMIL-HERMOSILLA, Adriana    ABARCA-GONZALEZ, Cristian. Experience of Articulation of Memory Discourse in a Workshop on Stories of the Earthquake and Tsunami of 1960. []. , 48, pp.39-55. ISSN 0123-4870.

This article describes the memory reconstruction experience around the 1960 earthquake and tsunami by a group of survivors to this catastrophic event. For this study, we have used a qualitative method, including narrative as a scriptural exercise, as well as in-depth interviews. Ten narrative workshops and talks were held with a group of 15 people from Maullín, a coastal territory in southern Chile. Based on the analysis of the results, we see that the representations of the memory of the event of the members of the community follow semantic and symbolic patterns anchored in the Christian tradition, the family and the construction of the identity around the territory. The ideation of such forms constitutes the social frameworks that make up the articulation of testimonial narration.
