Description Using Jorge Borges fabulous novel and its character Funes el Memorioso, this text describes except for Funes curiousness and strangeness the problem of memorizing processes and their social representing, constructing within the lebenswelt mainly. The remembering and forgetting are showed as specific classifying, interpretative hermeneutic inter-subjective activities. The text s main arguments revolve around the analysis of museums as the institutional, material, scientific, to the future oriented places of memory as well. According to the anthropological reflection of the Western conceptualization of the time, the text analyzes the J.G. Mendel s Museum, the museum of genetics and heredity. Then, the representation of the west modernist time line is examined as specific continuum, connecting the ideas of the past, the presence and the future.
