Summary/Abstract: The philosophy of history, in its mainstream, searched to fi nd explication and understanding for the question of evil. The classical forms of teleology and eschatology have not any valid answer. After appointing these ruins, is it doable to formulate another appropriation from the question of memory? We are arguing for the possibility of this theory that introduces the terms of appeased memory and careless forget. Above all this, we are confronted with a kind of metaphysics, which shows the limits of our interpretation.
