Abstract
- The outbreak of the Spanish Civil War on July 17, 1937 marked a before and after in Spanish society, and the consequences of this conflict had an impact far beyond the Spanish borders, especially in those countries that welcomed exiles fleeing the reprisals of the Franco government. The open-door policy of Lázaro Cárdenas attracted thousands of families to Mexico that arrived in numerous waves seeking refuge while awaiting the fall of Franco. Among these families were those of Carlos Blanco Aguinaga and Angelina Muñiz Huberman, future writers who settled in the Mexican capital at ages thirteen and six, respectively. Unlike their parents, they had not decided to go into exile voluntarily, since they did not have a full awareness of the situation due to their young age. However, they were forced to face the experience of exile during their childhood, which led to the birth, over time, of a new nationalist identity discourse based on the disappearance of geographical boundaries as a primary element. This essay aims to explore the emergence of a deterritorialized identity through an approach to memories -pseudomemories- in both writers, based on the theories of Deleuze and Guattari, subsequently developed by critics such as Joris Pierre and Rosi Braidotti, and their interpretation of the nomadic subject.
