HERNANDEZ MARTINEZ, Laura Adriana. Biography and Family Memoirs. Secuencia [online]. 2018, n.100, pp.163-184. ISSN 2395-8464.  https://doi.org/10.18234/secuencia.v0i100.1576.

This article explores the dilemmas faced by biographers who are related to their historical subjects. This problem is analyzed by combining M. Halbwachs’ concept of collective memory with M. Bajtín’s dialogic perspective on biography and the goal of resolving the tension between family memoirs and historical discourse. Since Paulino Martínez went missing while serving as the Leader of the Zapatista Delegation at the Aguascalientes Convention, this traumatic event has been studied through M. Hirsch’s post-memory perspective and contemporary art’s interest in creating a new historiography that sheds light on the silenced discourse of the defeated.

Palavras-chave : biography; post-memory; zapatismo; family memoir, heterotopia.
