Abstract

This article establishes an intense dialogue with the historical, political and archival guidelines of Eusebio Neri Alves de Sousa (1883-1947), who was a lawyer, judge, journalist and historian, effective member of the Anthropological, Geographical and Historical Institute of Ceara (Ceara Institute, founded in 1887), director of the Public Archives of the State of Ceara and also of the Historical Museum of Ceara from 1932 to 1942. I highlight Sousa’s historical discourse in several books, official documents, articles he wrote and historical productions, as well as his achievements and directions found in the Public Archive, which dated and legalized the archival tradition and Archive in Ceara as from 1932 (and not in the XIX century), under the influence of historical studies of the Institute of Ceara and paradigms that ruled the Public Archives in the XX century as a place of the memory, the historical document, and of history writing, based on the idea that the Archival memory was an auxiliary science of History.
