Abstract

This chapter is an interpretation of "Memórias do Cárcere" by Graciliano Ramos willing to discuss the ethical and moral values present in the writing of memories of confining experiences. The analysis is illuminated with some insights of Avishai Margalit from his book The Ethics of Memory. More than general principles about the ethics of memory for literature and for history, the text intends just to follow the "Memórias do Cárcere" noting how this book reflects the value and meaning of writing memories.
