FISCHMAN, Fernando. "En la conversación fluía": Arte verbal, consideraciones emic y procesos conmemorativos judíos argentinos. Runa [online]. 2008, vol.29, pp.101-120. ISSN 1851-9628.

This article examines the connections between the present and the past established by Argentine Jews through the performance of verbal art expressions and metapragmatic considerations about them. The work focuses specifically on how certain expressions of the poetics of speech shape group memory. In particular, it deals with one narrative genre according to the utterers' definition and their use of it. Thus, the article shows the ways by means of which through the performance of speech play in informal contexts, the narrators, Argentine born children of Jewish immigrants, establish axes of continuity and discontinuity with different pasts: one experienced by the speakers themselves or their ancestors, another one pertaining to Jewish life in Eastern Europe, and one originated in sacred texts.

Palavras-chave : Social Memory; Argentine Jews; Verbal Art; Gender; Metapragmatics.
