<strong>Viaţa</strong> <strong>cotidiană</strong> <strong>în</strong> <strong>oraşul</strong> <strong>Chişinău</strong> <strong>la</strong> <strong>în</strong>ceputul secoului al XX-lea (1900-1918)<br />

We live inside of a vacuum which would be colored with various shades and<br />

lights, we live inside of a set of re<strong>la</strong>tions that define the irreducible locations<br />

to each other and are absolutely not super-posable”.<br />

From the historical point of view, we can talk about daily life when its<br />

historicity appears , being understood as the occurence of problems in human<br />

existence. History (in its multidimensional dimensions: economic, political,<br />

cultural) would not be possible without ensuring physical and biological<br />

maintenance of the individual and community through work. Thus the world<br />

of daily life has always existed througout history, since the man has achieved<br />

social dimension, each generation sends only a certain organization of the<br />

world, performed by others and not by someone in particu<strong>la</strong>r.<br />

The subject of daily life is identical, equal, homogeneous. Life defined by<br />

„daily life” is a repetitive, mechanical life, a life lived in absence, a life which<br />

is passing by itself, the life reason in daily life is given by the pleasure found<br />

by people in repetitiveness .People simply want to live their today’s life as it<br />

was yesterday , the habits should remain intact, and the safety of yesterday<br />

should be perpetuated today.<br />

Also, we cannot solitary talk about daily life.The daily life involves<br />

publicity, division of the people and self-belonging to it. Any daily experience<br />

is a common experience, in the sense that the opportunity, its realization or<br />

interpretation cannot be achieved without any social framework, in the full<br />

material and spiritual presence of others.<br />

Who lives in the daily life? No way the noble or aristocrat who owe their<br />

nobility to some events that are not of the daily life’s order. The noble gets<br />

his nobility by recognizing the exceptional nature of an action. He is ennobled<br />

by the ceremony and ritual that take him out of the average. The worker,<br />

on the contrary, extracts his professional determination and confirmation by<br />

carrying out daily one and the same operations. More precisely he is as such<br />

because his days are identic to each other, one day is simi<strong>la</strong>r to the other one,<br />

none of his days differ from the other day.<br />

From this perspective, the daily life emerges when the exeptional leaves<br />

the history to be hidden in the shady and gloomy rooms of the past. It occurs<br />

when its subject, the simple man takes the p<strong>la</strong>ce of his opposite: the exceptional<br />

man, the hero, the king, the prince.<br />

From mentioned above results the complex and sometimes contradictory<br />

nature to approach the subjects of daily life, the hard assemb<strong>la</strong>ge of a parahistoric<br />

discourse, because in his approach, the historian must always appeal<br />

to some aspects of daily life to others’ detriment.
