Summary/Abstract: The author examines the historical and theoretical structure of remembrance, the way in which history enters memory, and how memory is constituted. From the perspective of u critical philosophy of history the French Revolution can be seen as an isolated historical event or as a historical process — the revolution understood as continuity. The European remembrance of the French Revolution is that of human rights and liberties but also that of its transition into totalitarianism.
