Recent researchers have approached the memory aspect in Simone´s de Beauvoir books from different perspectives. Most of the works carried out with this theme talk about the construction of fictitious scenarios that remind a phase of life, or the intentionality of developing philosophical conceptions. Given this background, this article aims at understanding the concept of memory in the Historical-Cultural Theory. We analyze Simone de Beauvoir´s autobiography: Memoirs of a Dutiful Daughter focusing on the perception of the development of higher psychic function in different periods of human development, as opposed to how the psychic development is presented to the reader of by the author. The methodology consists in the dialectical analysis of the concept of memory, and how psychic development is presented in the life memories of the main character in Simone de Beauvoir's book, through a bibliographical revision of Vygotsky´s studies. With regard to the development of the memory, the analysis allows us to consider that the author performs a path of describing her experiences, very close to the considerations Vygotsky´s theory of development.

Keywords : Memory; Historical-Cultural Theory; Simone de Beauvoir.
