Abstract
AGUIRRE-LORA, María-Esther. Faculty of Music, UNAM. Notes for an Inventory of Places of Memory. Rev. iberoam. educ. super [online]. 2019, vol.10, n.29, pp.87-103. ISSN 2007-2872. https://doi.org/10.22201/iisue.20072872e.2019.29.524.
The year 1929 marked one of the fundamental milestones in the life of the National Autonomous University of Mexico (UNAM), both for the achievement of autonomy, patrimony of all university students, and for the establishment of university musical studies, which directly were entrusted to the Faculty of Music. During the first decades of its existence, several events took place that marked it and contributed to build the identity of the university musician as opposed to the conservatory musician. From this horizon, the purpose of this text is to offer a first approach to some of the traces in the collective memory of the current Faculty of Music to explore them from the perspective of the dialectic of memory and oblivion and to build, from there, our historical memory.
Keywords : university musicians; history; historical memory; memory/forgetfulness; identity processes; Mexico.
