CUNHA, Maria Teresa Santos and ALMEIDA, Doris Bittencourt. Personal archives on the present time radar: dimensions and possibilities in academic studies. Cad. Hist. Educ. [online]. 2021, vol.20, e049. Epub Jan 29, 2022. ISSN 1982-7806. https://doi.org/10.14393/che-v20-2021-49.
This text discusses the conditions of production, conservation and use of personal archives of university professors, subjects endowed with intellectuality, and their inscriptions in the History of Education mediated by the investigative experience of the History of Present Time. This approach contemplates, in different temporalities, the dimensions and possibilities of the personal archives of these educators in which the study of such life trajectories in the present time allows reconfigurations of pasts. It is also emphasized the use of these documents as a means of investigating both individual and collective actions that crossed the daily and academic life of Balduíno Antonio Andreolla (UFRGS) and Walter Fernando Piazza (UFSC), between the decades of 1950 to 1990. Does problem-like gestures of storing papers from the past allow us to wonder if such experiences can be considered memorable in teachers' journeys to the point of taking place in their drawers. Did they keep it so they wouldn't forget? Is preservation a way of seeking, in life, a kind of musealization of their memory?
