GARCIA VERA, Nylza Offir  y  GONZALEZ SANTOS, Fernando. Literature and Historical Memory at School: A Pedagogical and Research Experience. Folios [online]. 2019, n.49, pp.149-160. ISSN 0123-4870.  https://doi.org/10.17227/folios.49-9402.

This research paper points out how the link between literature and memory is anchored to the pedagogical possibilities of reading novels that show the Colombian conflict and enable the approach to historical events from the field of sensitivity and the aesthetic perception provided by art and literary imagination. Using as a starting point the reading of five Colombian novels that, as a whole, give an account of the effects of political violence in Colombia, from the 1950s to present day, teachers and students from Instituto Pedagógico Nacional in Bogotá tell us how, thanks to literature, memory challenges our place in the present, establishes new social bonds and arranges our subjectivity towards ethical relations of solidarity with the victims and with human tragedies.

Palabras clave : literature; historical memory; education.
