Miradas (literarias) cruzadas. Apuntes para un breve recorrido en torno al tema de la complicidad civil en los casos del regimen nazi y la reciente dictadura argentina. Carlos Gamerro y Hermann Broch

Abstract

Both nazism and the most recent military regime in Argentina required, as all dictatorships do, the complicity of a vast part of their societies. Historiography and literature have exposed the different forms in which this complicity has acted. This essay makes a brief journey through some of the literary approaches to this theme by taking two novels as axis: Carlos Gamerro’s El secreto y las voces for the Argentinian case and Hermann Broch’s El Maleficio for the German.
