Abstract

The paper informs about the process and the methodology of a qualitative sociological study using primarily visual (photographic) methods and approaches in order to understand social realities such as "social" or "collective memory" (Halbwachs). The goal of the study is to grasp the re-presentations of a post-revolutionary era through photographic images and stories told about them.
