I28-R145-13985_oai2025-11-17 Rubino, Atilio Raúl 2023-12-29 This article deals with a key text in the recovery of the memory of sexual dissidence, Die Männermitdem rosa Winkel (1972) by Heinz Heger. Written on the basis of interviews between Heinz Heger and Josef K between 1965 and 1967, it is the first testimony of the Nazi persecution of homosexuals based on the experience of an inmate with the pink triangle in the camps of Sachsenhausen and Flossenbürg. This testimonial account shows how it took almost thirty years for history to recognize the homosexual victims of Nazism. But, at the same time, it is a somewhat late text, in which sexuality is seen in a clearly essentialist way and crossed by very marked questions of morality and normality. Although published in 1972, it is clearly a text enunciated by an earlier generation, still marked in its normativity by the Nazi extermination plan. Este artículo aborda un texto clave en la recuperación de la memoria de la disidencia sexual, Die Männer mit dem rosa Winkel (1972) de Heinz Heger. Escrito a partir de las entrevistas entre Heinz Heger y Josef K entre 1965 y 1967, se constituye en el primer testimonio de la persecución nazi a los homosexuales a partir de la experiencia de un interno del triángulo rosa en los campos de Sachsenhausen y Flossenbürg. Este relato testimonial permite ver cómo a la Historia le llevó casi treinta años reconocer a las víctimas homosexuales del nazismo. Pero, al mismo tiempo, resulta un texto un poco tardío, en el que la sexualidad es vista de forma claramente esencialista y atravesada por cuestiones morales y de normalidad muy marcadas. Aunque publicado en 1972 es, claramente, un texto enunciado por una generación anterior, todavía marcada en su normatividad por el plan de exterminio del nazismo. application/pdf https://revistascientificas.filo.uba.ar/index.php/interlitteras/article/view/13985 10.34096/interlitteras.n5.13985 spa Facultad de Filosofía y Letras, Universidad de Buenos Aires https://revistascientificas.filo.uba.ar/index.php/interlitteras/article/view/13985/12610 Derechos de autor 2023 Inter Litteras Inter Litteras; Núm. 5 (2023) 2683-9695 0328-8935 memoria; teoría queer; triángulo rosa; nazismo; homosexualidad memory; queer theory; pink triangle; Nazism; Homosexuality Testimony, memory and the biopolitical continuity of homosexual persecution in Heinz Heger's The Men with the Pink Triangle Testimonio, memoria y continuidad biopolítica de la persecución homosexual en Los hombres del triángulo rosa de Heinz Heger info:eu-repo/semantics/article info:eu-repo/semantics/publishedVersion https://repositoriouba.sisbi.uba.ar/gsdl/cgi-bin/library.cgi?a=d&c=interlit&d=13985_oai |
