“Diante de tantas lembranças me ponho a chorar”: memórias de amor e saudade em Monte Horebe- PB.(1960-1970).

Abstract

The purpose of this research is to problematize the dating memories of young people from the city of Monte Horebe-PB in the 60's and 70's. Love relationships are manifold and distinct in all ages and contexts, influenced by various social, economic, and cultural factors. The purpose of this research is to discuss, through oral history, how the dating relationships were given according to the experiences of men and women who were young during this period. Through oral reports, seek to understand how young people related to each other, what influences of the environment in which they lived that interfered in their postures, the possible tactics used to break with certain patterns of the time and try to capture the sensitivities of that group. Starting from Culture History, the present research was carried out through interviews with men and women who lived through this period, besides the analysis of some letters and also photographs dedicated to lovers.
