Narrativas del conflicto y construcciones del pasado entre los q’eqchi’es: del relato de vida al mito
Agnès Bergeret
Abstrak
This article studies how the Q’eqchi’ of Cahabón (Alta Verapaz, Guatemala) relate to different past times, by examining the dynamics of two broad categories of narrative genre: established “stories” about ancestors and more autobiographical narratives about individual “suffering” experienced in recent times. The analysis of a narrative on a Q’eqchi’ peasant’s legal and political struggle against the Hacienda, recounted to the ethnographer and compared with the version of a ladino, shows the innovations of the narrator, as he uses different narrative genres to create a hero who can give meaning to recent historical upheavals
