El compromiso de las formas estéticas

Política y honestidad en la obra teatral de Lola Arias

Abstract
I will focus on the aesthetic forms implemented in three plays (2016) by the Argentinean playwright and director Lola Arias. I observe the existence of crossings that refuse to be labelled, as well as images linked to an autobiographical memory where the political is positioned to rediscover a new aesthetic commitment. The children develop a work with memory in terms of Elizabeth Jelin. I identify theatrical narratives that construct links in which transmedial memory together with literary discourse are taken as necessary tools for the sons to enunciate themselves in the present.
