Saz, Sara M. 2020-10-11 In January 2019, The Other Gondras (A Basque Tale), written by the Basque dramatist Borja Ortiz de Gondra, premiered in Madrid. The work probes the wounds of a Basque family after the long years of violence caused by the terrorism of ETA, the armed nationalist group. It connects with another play by the author, The Gondras (A Basque Story), but while The Gondras analyzes the history of that family over more than a hundred years, The Other Gondras dissects the relationships between certain members of the family at a specific moment. The playwright himself, who also intervenes in the work as an actor, returns to his town to collect a literary prize, as indeed he did, and the family is obliged to face its recent history. The theme of reconciliation in the Basque Country has been treated in the novel and the essay but its incorporation into the theatre through the technique of autofiction is novel.  En enero de 2019 se estrenó en Madrid Los otros Gondra (relato vasco) del dramaturgo vasco Borja Ortiz de Gondra, obra que indaga en las heridas de una familia vasca después de los largos años de violencia provocada por el terrorismo de ETA, la banda armada nacionalista.  Conecta con otra obra del autor, Los Gondra (una historia vasca), pero mientras que ese drama analiza la trayectoria de esa familia durante más de cien años, Los otros Gondra disecciona las relaciones entre algunos de los familiares en un momento específico.  El propio dramaturgo, que interviene también en la obra de actor, vuelve a su pueblo a recoger un premio literario, como efectivamente hizo en su día y la familia se encuentra obligada a enfrentarse con su historia reciente. El tema de la reconciliación en Euskadi (el País Vasco) se ha tratado en la novela y el ensayo, pero es novedosa su incorporación al teatro a través de la técnica de la autoficción.  application/pdf text/html https://revistascientificas.filo.uba.ar/index.php/telondefondo/article/view/8470 10.34096/tdf.n32.8470 spa Facultad de Filosofía y Letras, Universidad de Buenos Aires https://revistascientificas.filo.uba.ar/index.php/telondefondo/article/view/8470/8337 https://revistascientificas.filo.uba.ar/index.php/telondefondo/article/view/8470/8478 telondefondo.
