Theorists in autobiographical memory (AM) studies generally agree that AMs serve three kinds of broad functions: self-related, social, and directive functions. Although these kinds of functions are probably universal, gender and country variations are expected. The study investigates perceived use of AMs in everyday life. Male and female Danish and Spanish college students were asked to carry a diary and report a sample of naturally occurring instances of AMs. Participants were asked to assess their memories in terms of perceived functions. Results showed some country differences that were consistent with the characterization of Danish and Spanish samples in terms of individualism–collectivism. Some gender differences were also found. These differences, in contrast to our expectations, were limited to the Danes. To interpret it, two main lines of reasoning were proposed. The first was concerned with changes in gender ideology in Spain in the last decades. According to the second, these analyses may lead us to expand the number of broad categories as well as the variety of specific uses of AMs in everyday activities. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

This article analyses the records of 595 entrants to the English College, Rome, and 309 entrants to the English College, Valladolid. These Colleges, set up to train young English men as Catholic priests at a time when Catholicism was proscribed in England, required all entrants to complete questionnaires covering their social, educational, and religious background. The Responsa Scholarum are the autograph manuscripts of students at Rome; the Liber Primi Examinis consists of summaries of oral examinations written down by the interviewers. Through a combination of quantitative analysis and close reading of individual accounts, this article explores responses to the questionnaires, focusing on the engagement of young people with religion and religious identity. It argues that their self-writings shed important light on our understanding of both early modern religion and of early modern childhood and adolescence. [ABSTRACT FROM PUBLISHER]

This article focuses on the use of Spanish oedipal narrative in Spanish films. One of the first things that made the author want to write about Spanish cinema was the strangeness of the Spanish oedipal narrative: i.e., the way oedipal conflicts within the family are used to speak about political issues and historical events that were repressed from filmic representation during the Francoist era, and the way they continue to be used with even greater flamboyance in the post-Franco period after censorship and repression had been abolished. In the Spanish oedipal narrative, the father is usually absent, which enables him to be idealized and sometimes replaced by an ineffectual surrogate, on whom the son's patricidal impulses are displaced. If patricide is attempted, this deed is frequently performed by a daughter, which occurs symbolically in post-Franco films as diverse as "Cria Cuervos," "El Nido," and "Dedicatoria." Nowhere is the absent father more idealized than in the film "Raza," the historical melodrama based on a mythified autobiographical novel. "Raza" used the oedipal narrative to support the official version of the Spanish Civil War as a holy crusade.
