| Sumario: |
The atrocious experience of living and survi- ving in a German concentration camp during World War ii derived in a key issue as the re- presentation of said experiences – which had to keep a non-literary perspective, away from mere testimony – started to appear, at least in- voluntarily at first, from an aesthetic way of the historical fact. Then, the problems around the limits of representation appear at the border between the historical and the literary when narrating. Thus, when we present the case of the experience in the camps through the na- rrative of Jorge semprún and Primo Levi, we aim to establish that the aporia of relativism between history and literature finds a way to exist and stay in a continuous time – and thus, transmissible – in their intersection. |
