Beschreibung:This paper reconstructs some narratives from stories around the biographical in daughters of migrant mothers, in the Nicaragua-Costa Rica direction. These narratives were developed with special emphasis on how nine young adults aged 18 to 26 narrate their experience, via in-depth interviews and content analysis. The main objective was to visualize how the very form of verbal discourse intervene on processes of great tension and / or rupture in the biographical. The main forms of ‘discourse accidents’ found were: repetition, diminutives and memory lock. In addition to representing different ways of referring to content that is not said explicitly, these modalities of speaking without speaking can be considered as resources to put into words the unnamable of their experiences as migrant women and/or daughters of migrants, but also ways to hide and insolvently forget such experiences. This also allowed empirically problematize theoretical proposals regarding memory and narratives, discussing their link with the collective.
