The Hans<strong>en</strong> disease, new <strong>de</strong>nominationof the leprosy in Brazil, affects the human kind since anci<strong>en</strong>t ages,being a infectious and contagious chronicle disease which if not treated, maycompromise many internal organs in addition to disabling physical <strong>de</strong>formitieswhich stigmatize the pati<strong>en</strong>t. Our objective is not only <strong>de</strong>monstrating thetraumatic experi<strong>en</strong>ces full of barbarities, but to reveal ways to overcome theminsi<strong>de</strong> a governm<strong>en</strong>t institution created to iso<strong>la</strong>te lepers. Firstly, a bibliographicalrevision was ma<strong>de</strong> in the specialized literature about the compulsoryiso<strong>la</strong>tion, secondly, using the <strong>oral</strong> history, some pati<strong>en</strong>ts were s<strong>el</strong>ected to beinterviewed beyond those who lived traumatic experi<strong>en</strong>ces during the compulsoryiso<strong>la</strong>tion in the Tavares <strong>de</strong> Macedo Colony Hospital (in the state of Rio<strong>de</strong> Janeiro, Brazil), for they repres<strong>en</strong>t this traumatic past and their memoriesare important sources for the historical reconstruction of the iso<strong>la</strong>tionist policyof this country. The thread of thought of analysis of these memories is theperspective that it is not limited to file comp<strong>la</strong>ints against the vio<strong>la</strong>tion of therights of the compulsorily iso<strong>la</strong>ted people, but in revealing the importance ofthe <strong>oral</strong> history as a discursive practice that resonates in social movem<strong>en</strong>ts,such as the Movem<strong>en</strong>t of Reintegration of People Affected by Leprosy – MOR-HAN, who is mobilized in the fight against the social segregation of the iso<strong>la</strong>tedpati<strong>en</strong>ts to assert rights, resulting in the <strong>la</strong>w nº 11.520, of 18 September 2007,which grants special p<strong>en</strong>sion for life to people affected by leprosy and weresubjected to iso<strong>la</strong>tion and compulsory <strong>de</strong>t<strong>en</strong>tion in Colony Hospitals until 31December 1986.RODRÍGUEZ, María José y INFESTA, Gracie<strong>la</strong>La construcción <strong>de</strong> <strong>la</strong> maternidad y paternidad adoptiva:un análisis <strong>de</strong> los marcos interpretativos <strong>en</strong> <strong>la</strong>snarrativas autobiográficas <strong>de</strong> madres y padres adoptivosespañolesEl uso <strong>de</strong> docum<strong>en</strong>tos personales cu<strong>en</strong>ta con una <strong>la</strong>rga tradición <strong>en</strong> <strong>la</strong>s ci<strong>en</strong>ciassociales y muy especialm<strong>en</strong>te <strong>en</strong> <strong>la</strong> sociología y <strong>en</strong> <strong>la</strong> historiografía actual.En dos décadas se han publicado veintitrés <strong>historia</strong>s personas <strong>de</strong> padresadoptivos.

She left South Viet Nam on4/30/1975. Her age indicated that she was born 4 years before the <strong>en</strong>d of theFr<strong>en</strong>ch Colonial Period (1883-1945) and had be<strong>en</strong> experi<strong>en</strong>ced 2 wars: the firstIndochina War (1946-1954) and the VietNam War (1961-1975).The Narrator did not <strong>de</strong>scribe these wars in <strong>de</strong>tail but her life and her family lifeduring and after these wars. Her family life inclu<strong>de</strong>d her own and her ext<strong>en</strong><strong>de</strong>dfamily in Viet Nam and in the USA, her second home<strong>la</strong>nd due to her migrationto the USA. This migration was not her first choice. She b<strong>el</strong>ieved that it wasdue to her Super Power’s arrangem<strong>en</strong>t. This b<strong>el</strong>ief was also the tool to h<strong>el</strong>pher to <strong>de</strong>al with the post-war trauma, to cope with the cultural shock and toprosper socially within the mainstream in the USA.The narrator’s story was recor<strong>de</strong>d in a special way. The interviewer was avolunteer at a Hospice in Southern California, USA. The story <strong>la</strong>sted threehours but most of this time was for the narrator. The interviewer asked veryfew questions in or<strong>de</strong>r to c<strong>la</strong>rify the narrator’s story which was recor<strong>de</strong>d un<strong>de</strong>ra Hospice program. Note that the Hospice is an organization which provi<strong>de</strong>ssupport services for terminal ill pati<strong>en</strong>ts and their family. Therefore, there isthe issue of methodology of archiving memory: Can other disciplines in themedical and social works fi<strong>el</strong>d archive successfully others’ memories?The project principal is an in<strong>de</strong>p<strong>en</strong><strong>de</strong>nt researcher.
