Abstract

Since it emerged as a problematic event, by the prejudices involved in it, AIDS has been challenging for news coverage. Identify signs of memory in narratives that marked the 30th anniversary of AIDS is the purpose of this article, which focuses on texts published in the newspapers Folha de S.Paulo, O Globo and Estado de Minas, from notions such as events, narrative and memory. We are interested in learning how to articulate the notion of memory, as proposed by Paul Ricoeur as a resource that allows us to approaches to the narrative strategies adopted by journalism.
