Remembering the past: The question of narrative memory. Kearney, R. Philosophy & Social Criticism, 24(2-3):49–60, 1998. ![Remembering the past: The question of narrative memory [link]](https://bibbase.org/img/filetypes/link.svg "link")
Paper doi abstract bibtex [first paragraph] If fiction is free to recreate the past as it might have been, history has a duty to recount the past as it actually was (wie es eigentllch gewesen). I propose to explore here some critical implications of narrative memory. I will concentrate, first, on some controversial 'case histories' in psycho- therapy, before briefly touching on the more general debate about the role of narrative in recounting public historical events. Whereas 'case histories' deal with personal memories, recounted in the context of what Freud called the 'talking cure', history in the larger sense relates to events which often precede the testimony of individual lived experience and entail an ethical debt to testimonies of preceding generations. In both instances, however, we have to do with forms of narrative memory which have a certain truth-claim, that is, maintain a referential com- mitment of some kind to the 'reality' of the past.
