Summary/Abstract: The present research is based on a number of aspectualisations of the oral history, i.e of the dimensions attributed to the collective memory and, from a micro-historic perspective, it is trying to reassemble referential details from the communist era. Another purpose of this study is to revisualize behaviors and social judgments characteristic to the communist society by using the biographical narration of the first sports journalist in Romania, Nuşa Demian. In order to evaluate the social construct of that time, we are using the oral history interview. Besides, we have chosen to recreate Nuşa Demian’s biography in order to study the evolution of the woman-journalist in an era when the access of women to the professional life was limited, their emancipation being only meretriciously supported.
