Description
Abstract
La Revolución cubana constituye probablemente el hecho más influyente en la historia
contemporánea de América Latina por su alcance y significado. Todavía hoy, los ecos de aquel
acontecimiento se proyectan sobremanera en el presente y los numerosos interrogantes que sigue
generando lo convierten en un terreno extraordinariamente fértil para su estudio. En el presente
artículo queremos explorar las potencialidades que ofrece la historia oral para tal fin. Para ello, nos
servimos de las historias de vida de algunos sujetos que tuvieron experiencia directa o participaron
del acontecer político y social de Cuba desde la década de los cincuenta hasta el presente en
distintos escenarios. El rescate de sus voces nos permite acercarnos a la experiencia vivida de la
Revolución y nos ayuda a comprender el significado mismo de ese proceso histórico.
