摘要：The purpose of this paper is to analyze the configurations of memory in some narratives from dictatorial regimes and to demonstrate its relationship with the construction of identity and subjectivity of the narrator experiences, relating these with the historical period. Taking into account Kenneth Burke’s theory about literature as a symbolic act and Walter Benjamin’s theories about the concept of history beyond Aleida Assmann’s studies on culture of memories among other, we intend to verify aspects related to the limits and functions of memory in some works: Tropical Sol da Liberdade , Collin and Cassandra . The first one is of the Brazilian writer Ana Maria Machado, the following two of the German writers Stefan Heym and Christa Wolf, both from the former German Democratic Republic (GDR).
