Abstract
This paper explores the construction of childhood memory in Far Away and Long Ago by William Henry Hudson. We consider memory an evocation, rather than of a lost temporality, of a lost space and landscape, namely the Pampas in mid-19th Century.
We study the strategies of construction of what Susan Stewart calls "nostalgia as a social disease", as well as the concept of memory that organizes this autobiography of childhood.
