SANCHEZ PINEDA, Ernesto. Memory as world configuration in El reino de Celama, by Luis Mateo Diez. Valenciana [online]. 2018, vol.11, n.22, pp.131-158. ISSN 2007-2538.  https://doi.org/10.15174/rv.v0i22.379.

In the present work, a close look is taken of Luis Mateo Díez novel, El reino de Celama, in order to observe the role memory plays in its configuration. The three novels that comprise El reino... (El espíritu del páramo, La ruina del cielo and El oscurecer) are analyzed, taking into account the constant presence of oral literature in the writing, the fragmentation of the story, the remembrance and, obviously, the memory. Other investigators' theories, as well as Díez' own metaliterary and literary reflections, allow the functioning of the memory in this novel to settle. With the same intention, there are approximations to other works that are configured in a similar manner, since the mirroring of spaces, functions and characters also shed light on the the concept that is analyzed here as configurer of the world.

Palabras llave : El reino de Celama; Díez; Memory; Forgetting; Fragment; Intertextuality.
