Abstract:The article reflects on the meanings of silence which was encountered in the ethnographic research of memories on the Istrian exodus and a WWII national “hero” in the Primorska (littoral) region of Slovenia. Different kinds of silence are discussed, from the one deriving from the conflict of memories and power relations, violence and fear, to Freudian ideas of repression and trauma, denial and others. From the methodological point of view the question is raised of how to detect silence when filled with words or embodied. A reflection is made on the impact of research on the silenced communities.

Title:Cosa ci racconta il silenzio? : Traumi e conflitti memoriali nella ricerca antropologica sull'esodo istriano e su un «eroe» nazionale
Abstract:Inizialmente, l'articolo riflette sui significati del silenzio che sono stati incontrati nella ricerca etnografica delle memorie sull’esodo istriano e su un «eroe» nazionale della Seconda Guerra Mondiale nella regione della Primorska (Litorale) della Slovenia. Vengono poi discussi diversi tipi di silenzio, da quello che nasce dal conflitto tra memorie e relazioni di potere, violenza e paura, alle idee freudiane di repressione e trauma, negazione e altro. Dal punto di vista metodologico si pone la questione di come interpretare il silenzio quando è nascosto dietro le parole o incorporato. Infine, viene proposta una riflessione sull’impatto della ricerca sulle comunità silenziate.
Keywords:silenzio, conflitti di memoria, trauma, negazione, paura, congiura del silenzio
