In this dissertation, I explore how two contemporary Spanish authors, Juan Marse and Eduardo Mendoza, examine Barcelona at critical moments in its political and cultural history. The novels I consider, Mendoza's La verdad sobre el caso Savolta and La ciudad de los prodigios and Marse's Si te dicen que cai, Un dia volvere, and El amante bilingue , have settings that span roughly a hundred year time period, from the Barcelona World's Fair of 1888 to the early 1980s, when Barcelona experienced social and cultural changes under the Linguistic Normalization Plan. Their literary representations of Barcelona reveal a city whose history is written through the collective memory and imagination of its inhabitants. In exploring the marks that history has left on the city as well as on its people, Mendoza and Marse present characters whose struggles for identity reflect the city's own efforts to define itself. A city on the geographic margins of the Iberian Peninsula, Barcelona has frequently resided on the political margins of the Spanish state. Marse and Mendoza explore this relationship between margin and center in the relationship between Barcelona and the rest of Spain. More importantly, however, they turn their gaze inward and reveal that similar relations, in both social and political terms, exist within the very limits of Barcelona. Using Benedict Anderson's theories on nationalism as an imagined community, and Halbwachs' and Nora's theories of collective memory, I examine how Marse and Mendoza create memory communities who write their own versions of their community's history, and, in a sense, also write their own cities. In so doing, they posit the existence of multiple versions of Catalan identity. History and memory both contextualize and comprise individual and collective identity. These authors insist that without access to history and memory---both individual and collective---identity disappears.
