This book examines the cultural articulation of Spanish History (and
histories (remembered, meaningful experiences). It analyzes how real
people and fictional characters experience the rupture of post-war
repression, as their vindicating collective memory counters the
authoritarian narrative and laws that demonized and criminalized them.
The book, that breaks the persistent cycle of denial of Francoist
malfeasance, is a resource for scholars and students who research the
representation of Spain's dictatorship, its aftermath and the recovery
of postdictatorial memory.
