Focusing on literary texts produced from 2000 to 2009, Lorraine
Ryan examines the imbrication between the preservation of
Republican memory and the transformations of Spanish public space
during the period from 1931 to 2005. Accordingly, Ryan analyzes the
spatial empowerment and disempowerment of Republican memory and
identity in Dulce ChacA(3)n's Cielos de barro, A ngeles LA(3)pez's
Martina, la rosa nAmero trece, Alberto Mendez's 'Los girasoles
ciegos,' Carlos Ruiz ZafA(3)nAs La sombra del viento, Emili
Teixidor's Pan negro, Bernardo Atxaga's El hijo del acordeonista,
and Jose MarA a Merino's La sima. The interrelationship between
Republican subalternity and space is redefined by these writers as
tense and constantly in flux, undermined by its inexorable
relationality, which leads to subjects endeavoring to instill into
space their own values. Subjects erode the hegemonic power of the
public space by articulating in an often surreptitious form their
sense of belonging to a prohibited Republican memory culture. In
the democratic period, they seek a categorical reinstatement of
same on the public terrain. Ryan also considers the motivation
underlying this coterie of authors' commitment to the issue of
historical memory, an analysis which serves to amplify the ambits
of existing scholarship that tends to ascribe it solely to
postmemory.
