MIRANDA, Sonia Regina. Strange pasts found in a museum: children and their views on unknown times. Cad. CEDES [online]. 2010, vol.30, n.82, pp. 369-382. ISSN 0101-3262.  http://dx.doi.org/10.1590/S0101-32622010000300007.

This paper discusses children's problems when they encounter marks of past times in the present. Starting from an event in which, for the first time ever, a group of children went to a museum, it discusses their criteria to name and try to understand this strange past, based on the children's speech and uncanniness.
