This investigation's purpose is to establish a reflection about the relations between history and memory through the analysis of the miniseries "Holocaust" (1978), production broadcasted by the North American television channel NBC.The plot of "Holocaust" focuses on the tragic narrative of a Jewish-German family in the period from 1935 to 1945.A typical example of assimilated Jews, the Weiss family witnesses the tragic changes in their lives with the rise of Nazism and the establishment of anti-Semitism as a state policy.The miniseries is considered a landmark in the emergence of interest about the Holocaust in the public conscience of American people, presenting a narrative concerning the extermination of European Jews that is directly linked to the appreciation of this memory by the Jewish community.We intend to point that the commemorative aspect of this audio-visual production and the impact shown by its exhibition outside the United States, mainly in the Federal Republic of Germany, evidence the complexity of the relation between history and the memory discourse
