Abstract
PARDELLAS VELAY, Rosamna. “O sumidoiro da memoria, que o mesmo serve para lembrar que para esquecer”. Reflexiones sobre la memoria en los cuentos de Manuel Rivas”. Olivar [online]. 2015, vol.16, n.24, pp.3-3. ISSN 1852-4478.
Long before the publication of his novels, Manuel Rivas already had treated the topic of Memory in his short stories. Recopilated in O máis estrano in 2011, there is to observe a predilection for the topic and many of these stories constitute the germ of the later novels. In this article we analyze on the one hand memory as the creator of artistic experience. On the other hand the treating of personal or intimate memory will be taken into account as well as the so called Historical Memory. In an outstanding position cultural memory is placed, whose different aspects facilitate Rivas carrying out reflections on the identitarian vision of Galicia which includes reality and myth for whom the story for reasons of its heterogeneous and libertarian morphology comes out to be the most appropriate genre.
Keywords : memory; short story; identity; Galicia; myth.
