Memory and History

DIFFERENCES

History is the fact that something happened in the past that has been proof that it is truth and memory  is act of remembering things so it is constantly changing because as we learn new things others that weren’t so important let’s say erase from your mind

MEMORY AFFECTING HISTORY

Memory is affected by emotions and values which leads adaptations that us or a certain community gives to an event that cannot necessarily be the whole truth based on the opinions or beliefs of that specific person or group. Ex: if you fall down the stairs of your house that will be history because it happened but if somebody let’s say your mother observes it and says that it was funny that would be memory because that’s how she remembers it and in the other hand you could remember it as a painful experience
