Özet:

 


The
relevant study aims to put forward the contribution of memoirs to the history
studies and analyze the methodological usage and writing process of the memoirs
which are regarded as the main references of academic researches on history. In
this way an opportunity will be provided to evaluate the events and facts from
different perspectives by revealing the invisible parts of the events which
can’t be found in the documents, the other side that can’t be seen in the mirror,
the details which reveal humanity and daily life. This situation should be
interpreted as the contribution of memoir source type to history studies. 

Witnessing history
and feeling dedicated to a certain period of history can be possible if people
pass on their knowledge which they’ve obtained from their memories and past
experiences to the next generation. With this regard memories are among the
most significant references while writing history. There are important studies
that discuss the  references which
approach the main sources of the history. History puts forward new perspectives
on methodology by discussing its own sources. There are different views on the
relationship between memoirs and history. According to one of these views
memoirs can be defined as the act of publicizing part of a private or social
life by an individual who wants to continue his/her existence in the future.
The reasons why memoirs are written can be stated as to prevent memories from
being forgotten, passing on a reality (that is afraid to be lost) to history,
society, to show your admiration to people you live with, to confess a sin or
to give a lesson to next generations. The main concern of the authors in
writing memoirs is writing about their experiences instead of writing about
themselves. By this the person devotes his/her narration to history and becomes
a significant reference of it.
