• Sommario/riassunto: The filmic commemoration of the republican guerrilla movement and its diverse phenomenology as an armed resistance against the Francoist dictatorship is one of the most privileged topics of the so called Spanish Cinema of Memory. The collection of essays in La memoria cinematográfica de la guerrilla antifranquista analyze the most emblematic films of this thematic cycle, touching on the vast scope of different filmic discourses as well as on the films’ intentions to take up a position in the still current and controversial debate about the historical memory of Francoism. The articles emphasize how this Cinema of Memory dismisses concrete historic reference, thus allowing an intense reflection not only on the ethics of resistance and dignity, but also on the power of counterfactual imagination. La finalmente derrotada guerrilla antifranquista y su tan diversa fenomenología como resistencia armada contra la dictadura constituyen uno de los temas privilegiados del cine de memoria español. Los trabajos compilados en La memoria cinematográfica de la guerrilla antifranquista analizan las obras más emblemáticas de este ciclo de películas, incidiendo tanto en su muy variada textura cinematográfica como en su voluntad de posicionarse dentro del todavía hoy controvertido debate sobre la memoria histórica del franquismo. A la vez, tomados en su conjunto, los artículos enfatizan como este cine de memoria, partiendo de un concreto referente histórico, ha sido capaz de desarrollar una intensa reflexión no sólo sobre la ética de la resistencia y de la dignidad, sino también sobre el poder de la imaginación contrafáctica.

• Sommario/riassunto: This book tells an ethnographic story of a secret literary culture that has recently emerged from its cocoon. Until 2012, Myanmar (also known as Burma) was ruled for fifty years by one of the most paranoid and repressive censorship regimes in history. The military junta enforced strict reading and writing restrictions in line with their ; ideology, feared writers' potential to trigger change, and did their best to keep Western books and influences out of the country. As part of an unexpected move toward democracy, the government has recently lifted the worst restrictions on reading and writing, giving rise to a new era in the country's literature and literary culture. While living in Myanmar in 2013, Ellen Wiles sought out the best of its contemporary writers and writing to begin uncovering the country's remarkable literary life and history. This book contains the experiences and recent output of nine Myanmar writers spanning three generations, featuring interviews and English-language translations of their work, along with political, legal, and artistic explorations. It includes men and women, fiction and poetry, reflecting the ripples of political and cultural change as they have moved across different groups and genres. A rare portrait of a people and place in transition, Wiles's work contributes both to the study of literature and culture in Myanmar and to the general study of art under censorship.
