DEL VALLE PRADO, Mariana. The autobiographical imagination applied to El Rey. Diario de un Latin King. Ultima décad. [online]. 2021, vol.29, n.55, pp.176-196. ISSN 0718-2236.  http://dx.doi.org/10.4067/S0718-22362021000100176.

The present article analyzes the practical application of life stories as a research tool for the construction of an autobiography. Specifically explaining how Catalan anthropologist Carles Feixa applied the autobiographical process he had previously presented in his book La Imaginación Autobiografica. Las historias de vida como herramienta de investigación (2018) to develop the biography of César Andrade, a young Ecuadorian resistant in Barcelona, published in El Rey: Diario de un Latin King (2020). By revealing the work method used by Feixa, a professor and researcher with more than 30 years of experience in life stories, we intend to contribute a useful set of tools for those who choose to apply biographical methods and oral sources.

Palavras-chave : life stories; autobiographical process; Latin King.
