Direito e psicanálise: testemunho, memória, história

Abstract

What would this moment of danger be if not the improprieties of our existence, the reality that crosses us, questioning our certainties about any knowledge already known? It is at this point that memory is linked to testimony, which is not done without the presence of another, stripped of its preconceptions, lending its listening so that the narrator can also hear the untranslatable rumors that, resounding in his body, they were held back, suspended in time by pain and resentment. Grinding the remains, fighting to live in the words, rewriting history so that it survives! History is, therefore, a work of fiction, always finding its checks and balances in the events, in real facts that must never be erased or disregarded. Ethical duty of memory!
