Learning outcomes

“The Hispanic-American testimonial writing”

In a trajectory that goes from the first attempts, halfway between literature, anthropology and ethnography, to write the stories of subaltern subjects - slaves, indigenous people, etc... - to the literary works on military dictatorships, this second part aims to provide an introduction to one of the most significant literary phenomena of the last decades of the twentieth century: the testimonial writing.
