Abstract
Ningún relato factual o de ficción tiene el poder ni, por tanto, la obligación, como señala Genette
(1993: 60), de imponerse una velocidad rigurosamente sincrónica con la de su historia. Los documentales
de divulgación histórica no son ninguna excepción, por eso recurren a un conjunto
de técnicas narrativas y dramáticas que les permiten alterar la duración del relato audiovisual que
llevan a cabo y, en consecuencia, adecuar su contenido a los límites del tiempo fílmico e impedir
que el ritmo se ralentice y aburra al espectador. Partiendo de la categoría genettiana de velocidad,
el presente artículo se propone analizar el uso estratégico de algunas de estas técnicas en la serie
documental televisiva La Transición (1995).
According to Genette (1993:60), any factual or fiction narrative has neither the power nor the commitment to take on the same simultaneous narrative speed of its story. Therefore, the historical documentaries are not an exception. For this reason, they make use of several narrative and dramatic techniques in order to fit the length of their audiovisual narratives, and consequently, to adapt their contents to the movie length and both prevent the rhythm from becoming slow and the audience from being bored. Taking Genette’s category of narrative speed as the starting point, the aim of this article is to analyze the strategic use of some of these techniques in the television documentary series La Transición (1995).
