História, memória e distância: um estudo do testemunho de primo levi sobre os campos de concentração

Abstract

This text analyzes the work: The Drowned and the survivors from the reflections on the work of Paul Ricoeur: Memory, history, forgetting, taking as guideline questions: What? How? And who remembers? The objective is to discuss about some aspects that mark the passage from what you remember for writing, the implications of which require recognition of the distance between the lived, remembered and narrated. It is believed that within the treatment of literature as a historical source of testimony should be a reflection that considers the conflicting relationship present in the distinctions between what he remembers, recounts and configures itself in writing.
