History and memory are not equivalent terms, still less when they point a past marked by exclusion and injustice. If history tends to reduce that past according to the criterion of scientific objectivity, memory marks his critical actuality. So the tension raised by an episode as the Spanish exile of 1939. Some reflections of three emblematic philosophers of that exile as Eugenio Ímaz, María Zambrano and Adolfo Sánchez Vázquez, are illuminating in this way. Written at moments and contexts so much significant as the pos-war, the second Franquism and the horizon of democratic Spain, they suggest excellent hermeneutic keys to state a memory of exile.
