Idelber Avelar Biography

Idelber Avelar is one of the most popular and richest Professor who was born on October 31, 1968 in Uberaba, Minas Gerais, Brazil.

Avelar completed his B.A in Anglo-American Literature at the Federal University of Minas Gerais, Brazil, in 1990. In the same year, he moved to the United States, where he finished his Ph.D in Spanish and Latin American Studies at Duke University. His dissertation focused in post dictatorial Latin American literature. Still in 1996, Avelar accepted an invitation to work at the University of Illinois.

In his best known book, published in 1999, Avelar suggests that writing about the experience of a dictatorship is hindered by a form of recollection that is characteristic of the market, where the old is always entirely replaced with the new, leaving no traces of the connection between these two instances . Avelar compares this type of memory with the allegoric approach, which preserves the outcomes of the past in the present, even when they are negative – such as that which the past had to forget so it could come into being: in the case of dictatorships, torture, disappearances, and violence used to contain social upheaval during this time. Allegoric writing introduces the horror of the dictatorship into the present, challenging the appeasing narrative of the transition to democracy.
