Between philosophy and sociology: theoretical frameworks of the current discussions about history and memory

Abstract

The objective of this text is to point out the theoretical matrices of some authors who serve as reference of contemporary studies on the relation between history and memory: Bergson, Halbwachs, Pollak, Ricoeur. Their studies dialogue, in a direct or indirect way, with two matrices: the sociological-objectivist and the phenomenologicalintuitionist. These matrices became known within the scope of the dispute between philosophy and sociology about the orientation of the emerging human sciences in the XIX century.
