The "historical real" to the servant of fiction. Uses of History and Reality in Resistencia, by Rosa Aneiros

Since Resistencia was published in 2002, Rosa Aneiros has become an established writer within the Galician literary system. Her production reflects a special preference for creating a fictional world where the presence of historical reality, especially recent history, is decisive. In order to analyse this "real/historical" element and its use, we are going to approach Resistencia, a novel set in the Salazarian dictatorship (1933-1974), and the extent to which this impacts on the plot of the play. Thus, a previous approach to the novel was done presenting the main used resources, recounting the historical told events and clarifying the historical sings of the novel.
