Abstract

this article aims to provide the researchers and students a practical and scientific guide for the purpose of helping them to practice the technique of "the life story" considering it a methodology to collect information that requires interviewing a witness who tells "his story" in order to build an investable communicative product in the frame of a point of view about certain research.

history can’t be only valued with the written books but also with the fate and memory of each person.

"The life story" is closer to ethnographic research as it carries within it an interesting world that pushes the researchers to think about history, society about everything that touches our lives, the lives of our relatives, and especially the memory of those who did not cross our mind owing to one particular reason that did not record the events.
