FIGUEROA SANCHEZ, Cristo Rafael. memoria y ciudades en la narrativa colombiana contemporánea. el caso de cartagena de indias*. univ.humanist. [online]. 2006, n.61, pp.257-271. ISSN 0120-4807.
Based on recent studies about the functions of historical and collective memory, this article approaches the literal reconstruction of Colombian cities, particularly Cartagena de Indias. This city is emblematic of our problematized modernity, fabulated by two contemporary narrators: German Espinosa and Roberto Burgos Cantor. The former, while reconstructing Cartagena in his "La tejedora de coronas" (1982), inspires a "historical and encyclopedial memory" of mannerist ancestry, to evidence unresolved crises of a past thought to be concluded. The latter, in "El vuele de la paloma" (1995), invokes a "collective and regenerative memory" of baroque ancestry, to evidence the assymetries and irregularities of modernization and urbanization processes that took place since the second half of the 20th century.
