It seems we all know the meaning of the term “national history”, but in practice this concept of is easily confused with that of “national culture”, and also with the memory of the past. Moreover, to this confusion we should add another one which arises from a double condition: at the same time, “national history” belongs to a collective and to an individual domain; it constitutes a narrative of individual identity insofar it makes us confronts our own history, and also represents a narration of a collective identity, to the degree it fixes a set of values in time. This work is an attempt to think over the concept of “national history” from the perspective of a single focus and seeking for a more intimate way of inhabiting that historiographic structure.
