Abstract
This essay reflects on testimonial concentrationary narratives of 20th and 21st centuries from a transnational perspective taking in account two of them: testimonies written by Spanish Republican exiles in French concentration camps from 1939, and testimonies written by survivors of clandestine detention centers in Argentina between 1976 and 1983. The analysis of different strategies of fictionalization and aesthetic reprocessing updates debates about testimony: the relationship between testimony and truth, as well as the different positions adopted by authors about the importance of literature in searching effective ways to represent the traumatic experience. Keywords: testimony; concentration camp; Spain; Argentina; narrative strategies.
