Narrar para contarlo: Labrando la memoria histórica en Beatus ille de Antonio Muñoz Molina

This essay attempts to analyze Muñoz Molina\u27s discourse as a form of "new memory" of the facts and events prevailing in twentieth-century Spain. In his text, the author confronts the ®heroic history ¼ of the Civil War and its poets, with the private life-stories of his characters. Beatus ille narrate a heroic discourse on the biography and works of a dark and forgotten writer of the Generación del 27, but the voice, placed emphatically in 1968, omits the moment in which the novel is written and published.Este artí­culo tiene por objeto analizar la formación de un discurso como "nueva memoria" que sobre los sucesos del pasado se delinean en Beatus ille . Este discurso se teje sobre la biografí­a y la obra de un poeta perdido de la generación del 27, y se detiene enfáticamente en 1968, desconociendo el presente inmediato en el que se escribe y publica esta novela
