This article examines the link between the Argentinien children’s and young adults’literature, known by its Spanish acronym LIJ (Literatura Infantil y Juvenil) and the memory studies, when the traumas of the Dictatorship is evoked. The narratives strategies of the stories evoking the last Dictatorship evolved, revealing two tendencies : both turned toward the duty of memory, the first tendency favours imagination and fantasy, while the second, the realistic narrative and the testimonial forms. We are interested in post-dictatorial production, and its evolution from the nineties, by questioning the meaning of what we can call, by re-using the formula of Beatriz Sarlo in Tiempo Pasado, cultura de la memoria y giro subjetivo, una discusión, while adapting it to our subject of study, a “subjective turn”, in the stories of the memory intended for the children.
