The women's memory in the resistance again Franco's regime: Context, identity, self-representation

Abstract

This paper reviews a research on the resistance of women against Franco's regime,
undertaken by the author almost twenty years ago. New methodological tools concerning oral
history and interpretation keys of gender history, contribute to analyse interrelationships such
as memory-identity-autorepresentation, including dialogic relations among testimonies and
the context, as well as between the interviewer and the interviewed women. Briefly, a “revisitation”
that intends to identify lines of research allowing to surpass the solidarity phase for more
complex and problem oriented approaches to women's resistance.
