Steined Heraldry: About Los Círculos Morados. Memorias I, By Jorge Edwards Valdés
Keywords:
Autobiography, Chilean Literature, Jorge Edwards, Genealogies, Writtings of the SelfAbstract
This work is an analytical study about the book Los círculos morados. Memorias I, from the Chilean writer Jorge Edwards. Three aspects are discussed here, which are interweaved among themselves: the way the author assumes the autobiographical genre (what he understands by this genre, why he chooses it and how he construct himself as a first grammatical person), the reflection he elaborates about paternal authority and the elites (money’s prestige) and the alternatives to withdraw from the oppressive circles.
