This testimony, the result of more than thirty years of interviews and dialogues, documents aspects of Cuban and Caribbean cultural reality from the perspective of an authoritative and cultured voice, who has been both a protagonist and witness of important historical and cultural processes. The work falls within the testimonial genre, which combines elements of oral history, autobiography, and ethnography, and reflects both personal and collective memory, mediated by the subjectivity of the author and the curator of the testimony. Additionally, the text contextualizes Morejón’s career within the framework of the Black Renaissance in Havana, a cultural phenomenon that emerged after the Cuban Revolution of 1959 and promoted the visibility and development of Afro-descendant intellectuals in various artistic and academic disciplines. El texto se centra en el testimonio literario "Huellas de la memoria" de la poeta cubana Nancy Morejón, una figura destacada de la literatura afrocubana contemporánea. Este testimonio, resultado de más de treinta años de entrevistas y diálogos, documenta aspectos de la realidad cultural cubana y del Caribe desde la perspectiva de una voz autorizada y culta, que ha sido protagonista y testigo de importantes procesos históricos y culturales. La obra se inscribe dentro del género testimonial, que combina elementos de la historia oral, la autobiografía y la etnografía, y refleja tanto la memoria personal como colectiva, mediada por la subjetividad de la autora y la gestora del testimonio. Además, el texto contextualiza la trayectoria de Morejón en el marco del Renacimiento Negro en La Habana, un fenómeno cultural surgido tras la Revolución cubana de 1959 que promovió la visibilidad y el desarrollo de intelectuales afrodescendientes en diversas disciplinas artísticas y académicas. pubtype: Academic Journal doctype: Article src: R language: Spanish refInfo: copyright: @attributes: flag: Y custom: Copyright of Revista de Estudios Hispánicos is the property of Washington University and its content may not be copied or emailed to multiple sites without the copyright holder's express written permission.
