Sumario:A particular interest in confession took place during the middle of the 20th century, within the conflict between rationalist excesses and the emergence of another type of knowledge more linked to the experience. Is important to emphasize the attention given to the genre by both María Zambrano (in La confesión: género literario y método, essay of 1941), and Rosa Chacel (in La confesión, of 1971). Critics have pointed out the relevance of the link between these authors, indicating the contrasts around their approaches. However, it is still necessary to consider the hypothesis that both –each of them with a singular strategy− project the confession as a privileged way for a possible expression of the experience, configuring it not only as a significant core of the relationship between life and truth, but also as a reaction to the inexplicable nature of the tragedy surrounding the biographical transit through exile and its fictional manifestations.
