Synopsis

In recent years, debates around public history have become one of the most sought after topics among historians, teachers and professionals in related areas who have come to realize the strong presence of demands and historical narratives in our public scene. At a time marked by diverse denialism, especially on historical topics, reflection on the public dimensions of history has assumed a fundamental role in our days.

What the texts presented in this work demonstrate is the need to go beyond the historiographical and discover the historical in the public space. If the former continues to be a fundamental tool for reflection, the latter places the History professional's practice in the real world, where life reinvents itself every day.
