Abstract
MARTINEZ DE LA ESCALERA, Ana María. La tradición en jaque: Una lectura desde la diferencia. Acta poét [online]. 2006, vol.27, n.2, pp.115-127. ISSN 2448-735X.
In this paper the gadamerian concept of "tradition" is problematized by the use of "memory" and "memory as experience". The concept of "experience" acts out as a cathalyst which brings out the "historical" and the "political" dimentions of tradition as a memory experience. Thus a vocabulary is revisited; concepts of "public" (as in public opinion), "community", "future", "collective memory" and tradition are read, through a politically oriented reading, as "heteronomous events", contingent effects of human (political, economical, social, ethical) action (energeia).
