TREVISAN, Amarildo Luiz; AZEVEDO, Maurício Cristiano de  and  ROSA, Geraldo Antonio da. Archive Fever - A Challenge to the Philosophy of Education?. Educ. Rev. [online]. 2021, vol.37, e68475.  Epub Apr 26, 2021. ISSN 1984-0411.  https://doi.org/10.1590/0104-4060.68475.

From the reflection extracted from the book Archive Fever: A Freudian Impression (Mal de arquivo: uma impressão freudiana, 2001 - portuguese version), by Jaques Derrida, the article intends to investigate the consequences of the metaphor of “archive evil” for the field of philosophy of education. Through the belief that the tradition of the repressed is inscribed within the idea of archive, it seeks to leverage the term to interpret some existing problems in the field of the relation between philosophy and education. In particular, it looks at the way in which the discourse of philosophy emerges, as well as the cultural dynamics that persist in following certain orientations, their authority and their genealogy quite present in the contemporary academic sphere. The deconstruction of metaphysics adds to the work of psychoanalysis, making the forbidden come to consciousness and, therefore, to the literal level of writing. And so, the event of understanding can help to demobilize the compulsion to repetition that has arisen in the archive.

Keywords : Archive evil; Philosophy of education; Hermeneutics.
