PENA ALCOCER, Joed Amílcar. We Live the Revolution: Voceros del Alvaradismo and the Discourse of Revolutionary Memory in Yucatan. Península [online]. 2017, vol.12, n.1, pp.55-75. ISSN 1870-5766.  https://doi.org/10.1016/j.pnsla.2017.01.003.

This paper studies the role of literature and journalism in the formation of memory on the Revolution in Yucatan during the administration of Salvador Alvarado. The Alvarado administration created a system of political propaganda that tried to justify the Revolution as necessary; some intellectuals without being official propagandists appropriated this discourse and contributed, with their novels and newspaper articles, to forge the history and memory of Revolutionary Yucatan as voceros del alvaradismo. The literary and journalistic discourse based on the experiences of these authors soon joined the collective memory of Yucatan.

Palabras llave : Mexican Revolution; Salvador Alvarado; Literature; Journalism; Memory.
