description | Women have ventured into ways of writing about the past that explore areas tangential to the majority of writings that especially address economic and political change. Their forms of writing are seen as marginal, impure, and apparently trivial. However, they offer ways to see the past that link the personal with the political. In this work, I explore family memories from three generations of women from two middle class quiteño families. Being myself part of one of these families, I offer not only an analysis, but also a co-construction of family stories in dialogue with women of different generations. Through engagement with certain objects stored or produced by family members, I analyze the work of remembrance in the family stories narrated and revived by these women with an approach that seeks above all to account for negotiations with notions of femininity and with the ideology of pride in work. |

Las mujeres han incursionado en formas de escribir sobre el pasado que exploran áreas tangenciales a La mayor parte de escritos que abordan en especial el cambio económico y político. Sus formas de escritura son vistas como marginales, impuras, y aparentemente triviales. Sin embargo, ofrecen maneras de ver el pasado que Ligan Lo personal con Lo político. En este trabajo exploro Las memorias familiares de mujeres de tres generaciones de dos familias quiteñas de clase media. Siendo yo misma parte de una de Las familias, aquí realizo no solamente un análisis, sino una co-construcción de historias familiares, en diálogo con mujeres de diferentes generaciones. A través del acercamiento a ciertos objetos guardados o producidos por miembros de la familia, analizo el trabajo de memoria en Las historias familiares narradas y Revividas por estas mujeres, con un enfoque que persigue sobre todo dar cuenta de Las negociaciones con Las nociones de feminidad y con La ideología del orgullo por el trabajo.
