Television series and memories of the recent past in Chile: Approaches from gender perspective and emotions
Abstract
Based on the reception analysis of three generations of viewers -who lived through the coup d'etat, who grew up in dictatorship and grew up in democracy-, of the fictional series broadcast on open television in the context of the commemoration After the 40 years of the coup d'etat in Chile, we asked ourselves about the type of memories about that past that each of the generations considered builds, the distinctions that men and women make and their emotions. According to our interviews (24) and focus groups (6), we observed that the experience lived in relation to the dictatorship impacts their reading differently according to their gender and generation; that the construction of individual and collective memories is linked to their life cycle.
