Descripción
Sumario:The article analyzes an oral history interview conducted with a descendant of Japanese immigrants. The objective is to apprehend issues related to the constitution of a memory about the interviewee's identity, observing the relationship that she, a descendant of the third generation of immigrants, keeps with the land of her grandparents. Our argument is that the relationship is built from an “inherited” memory logic, elaborated under the bias of nostalgia.
