Tasks, Tools and the Boundaries of the Discursive

Rom HarrÈ

Georgetown University, USA

Abandoning the container account of memory needs supplementing by the task/tool metaphor. That memories are ‘true’ recollections requires a social constructionist intrepretation, attention to the roles of formal records and the dramaturgy of displays. Technology and tradition are both, in the end, narrative forms.

Key Words: narrative • social construction • task/tool metaphor
