“Searching for Amadeo” follows the author, an anthropologist and daughter of an exiled republican family, on her journey to join the historical memory movement in Pamplona, Navarra, to discover the circumstances of her grandfather’s death in the massacre of Valcaldera on August 23,1936, and subsequent transfer to and from the Valley of the Fallen. Searching for Amadeo shines a light on what the author calls, the ‘traffic in bodies’ as an important modality of Spain’s necropolitics. The seminar will explore the genre of intimate ethnography and family photography as a method for grasping the multilayered subjective experience of memory work and the afterlife of violence on subsequent generations.
