PEREZ, Victoria y BAEZ PERALTA, Gerardo. SOME REFLECTIONS ON WALTER BENJAMIN’S LITERATURE AS A BACKGROUND TO THE STUDIES ON MEMORY. Linguist.lit. [online]. 2020, n.78, pp.428-450. Epub 16-Nov-2021. ISSN 0120-5587. https://doi.org/10.17533/udea.lyl.n78a17.
Studies on memory have helped clarify how identity is shaped by our memories, in turn cemented and transmitted on a social level. In this article, we review two essays by Walter Benjamin, a precursor in discussing the social character of memory and origin, realization and effects of remembrance, and use them to reflect on the nature of literature as it is conceived when it contributes to the work of depicting and disseminating images of enclaves of the past and reflecting on the processes of collective memory.
