- Title
Los restos de la memoria: sobre la emisión de La Guerra de los Mundos en Quito.
- Authors
RODRIGO-MENDIZÁBAL, Iván Fernando
- Abstract
The article analyzes the memory of the event of the radio broadcast of The War of the Worlds on Radio Quito in 1949. It takes as its axis Leonardo Páez's novel, Los que siembran el viento (1982), a work that should be thought of as an archive that It helps us to understand the events narrated by the creative-communicator himself, who also exposes the libretto -apparently lost-, by which he tries to redeem himself from the socio-historical weight that such broadcast entailed. The libretto included in the novel, its narrative, its effects and what it makes to infer regarding the social and political life of the moment are examined. On the other hand, Quito's social behavior and lack of discernment in front of an entertainment program are denoted.
