In this essay I intend to discuss the methods and the circumstances in which the memories of the emigrations create a social fabric made of shared social representations in a community of south-eastern Sardinia. The emigrations in question are those that started, post second world war, towards the industrial and mining areas of Europe and towards the north of Italy, and that have altered forever the balance of existence between the work of farmers and shepherds in Armungia. The complex frame of reference between memory and oblivion, between the things remembered and those repressed, generates in the protagonists of the abandonment, and then of the return, a perception that is not always removed or pacified by the meaning and the reasons behind the escape from the rural life of Sardinia in the nineteen-fifties.

Abstract
In this essay I intend to discuss the methods and the circumstances in which the memories of the emigrations create a social fabric made of shared social representations in a community of south-eastern Sardinia. The emigrations in question are those that started, post second world war, towards the industrial and mining areas of Europe and towards the north of Italy, and that have altered forever the balance of existence between the work of farmers and shepherds in Armungia. The complex frame of reference between memory and oblivion, between the things remembered and those repressed, generates in the protagonists of the abandonment, and then of the return, a perception that is not always removed or pacified by the meaning and the reasons behind the escape from the rural life of Sardinia in the nineteen-fifties.
