Introductory note [Interlitteraria vol. 22:1]

Resumo(s)
The dossier presented in this issue of Interlitteraria analyzes the complex relation
between literary and artistic practices, and the situations of censorship
and political repression suffered, opposed or responded to, in Lusophone and
Hispanophone contexts during the 20th and 21st centuries. Even if many of the
case studies deal with Iberian and Ibero-American dictatorships, with this
special issue we want to reflect on the concepts of “repression” and “censorship”
beyond the scope of authoritarian regimes, for these are processes that
manifest themselves in different forms and also in apparently or superficially
democratic scenarios. In fact, Iberian and Latin American contexts offer good
examples of the persistence of patterns of rejection, repression and censorship
in recent times, as well as of the range and potentialities of artistic and creative
responses to these patterns. In both cases, we find models and manifestations
of “direct violence”, but also more complex and concealed articulations leading
to more subtle, and sometimes more dangerous ways, of censorship. From that
viewpoint, this special issue discusses topics such as the individual construction
of memories of political violence; the reflection of the artists’ own role in a
context of repression, or the possibilities of artistic creation as self-affirmation
against censorship.
