Abstract
Taking the archive as a physical and epistemological space, this study aims at a reflection on what it may evidence to the work of historians of education. Dialoguing with the historiography on the role of the archives in the writing of History, the first part reflects on the relations between Archive, Memory, and History. Then its two levels of evidence are discussed for the historical-educational research: intentional and unintentional evidence on education.
