Workshop in Burgos: The Minimal Autobiography, by Beltrán Gambier
A Life in Just One Thousand Words
–
Fundación Instituto Castellano y Leonés de la Lengua (Burgos)
Intramuros magazine, a pioneer in the autobiographical genre in Spanish, celebrates its 30th anniversary this year, continuing to explore the form known as the "minimal autobiography." Its director, Beltrán Gambier, will give a 120-minute workshop that will guide the audience in writing their life story in 1,000 words (minimal autobiography). In the first part (60 minutes), Gambier will provide some theoretical guidelines and read excerpts from minimal autobiographies with the aim of motivating participants—who do not need any academic training—to write (in the following 30 minutes) three or four first paragraphs in the first person, which will be read and discussed (in the last 30 minutes) among the participants.
