“Me, collectives, relatives”: Ricœur refers to the subject of attribution of memory to close the first part of Memory, History, Forgetting, published in 2000. Ricœur mentions in this chapter the work of Alfred Schütz and phenomenological sociology. The exploration of an intermediate plan of memory (between personal memory and collective memory) in the relationship with loved ones will be the occasion for a hermeneutical detour towards this social link of proximity. “On which path of attribution of the memory are the relatives?” Ricœur asks himself. Indeed, relatives are an opportunity to think about recognition by the path of remembrance. This exploration of the attribution of memories opens the connection of memory to recognition on a particular scale of the social bond, that of proximity.

In this paper, the thought of the Austrian-born theorist Alfred Schutz, presented in the articles published in the first volume of his collected papers, is examined from the perspective of the role that Edmund Husserl’s phenomenological attitude plays in it. Advocating the importance of analyzing the structure of the world of everyday life in his phenomenology of the natural attitude, Schutz uses various aspects of Husserl’s phenomenology, without paying special attention to the phenomenological attitude itself. Therefore, the paper discusses the extent to which Schitz’s understanding of the natural attitude and its world depends on this concept of Husserl’s philosophy, with special reference to Shutz’s theory in his article “On Multiple Realities”. After showing that Husserl’s phenomenological attitude cannot be compared to the “attitude of scientific theory” discussed in the article on multiple realities, the paper additionally analyzes the absence of the phenomenological attitude in Schutz’s thought while turning to Maurice Natanson’s critique of Schutz’s theory.

RESUMOObjetivo: refletir sobre as contribuições da sociologia fenomenológica para o campo da Enfermagem e da saúde mental. Método: estudo qualitativo, tipo teórico-reflexivo, nos pressupostos de Alfred Schutz, a partir de consultas a teses e dissertações, de 2006 a 2016, com cadastro no sistema eletrônico da biblioteca da Universidade Federal do Rio Grande do Sul. Resultados: o referencial teórico-metodológico schutziano tem sido aplicado em diversas investigações na Enfermagem e na saúde mental, possibilitando um novo olhar para as ações humanas no âmbito social. No Grupo de Pesquisa, foram utilizadas cinco dissertações e teses envolvendo usuários, familiares e trabalhadores. Destacaram-se importantes conceitos de Schutz: mundo social, relacionamento social, situação biográfica determinada, motivações humanas e tipificação da ação. Conclusão: a sociologia fenomenológica revelou os significados que as pessoas atribuem ao que vivenciam, numa perspectiva compreensiva, livre de generalizações e julgamentos. A atitude relacional de familiaridade e de reconhecimento da subjetividade do outro são bases operacionais deste referencial, que favorecem a implementação de ações de cuidado em saúde mental pautadas nas necessidades sociais.

Method: a qualitative, theoretical-reflexive study, based on the assumptions of Alfred Schutz, based on consultations with theses and dissertations, from 2006 to 2016, with a register in the electronic system of the Federal University of Rio Grande do Sul library. Results:  Schutz methodological has been applied in several investigations in Nursing and mental health, allowing a new look at human actions in the social sphere. In the Research Group, they were used in five dissertations and theses, involving users, relatives and workers. Important concepts of Schutz were emphasized: social world, social relation, determined biographical situation, human motivations and typification of the action. Conclusion: phenomenological sociology revealed the meanings that people attribute to what they experience, in a comprehensive perspective, free from generalizations and judgments. The relational attitude of familiarity and recognition of the subjectivity of the other are operational bases of this referential, which favor the implementation of mental health care actions based on social needs.

Despite the work of Dan Sperber and Deirdre Wilson (1989), the concept of relevance has not enjoyed the popularity it deserved among translators as it appears to be more productive in information science and sociology than in translation studies. The theory of relevance provides underpinnings of a unified account of translation proposed by Ernst-August Gutt. However, if the concept of relevance should take into account all parameters of legal translation, the approach should be pragmatic and not cognitive: The aim of a relevant translation is to produce a legal text in the target language which appears relevant to the lawyer in the target legal system, namely a text that can be used in the same way as the original source text. The legal translator works as a facilitator from one legal system into another and relevance is the core of this pragmatic approach which requires translation techniques like adaptation rather than through-translation or calque (in the terminology of Delisle/Lee-Jahnk/Cormier 1999). This contribution tries to show that relevance theory, which was developed in the field of sociology by Alfred Schütz, could also be applied to translation theory with the aim of producing a correct translation in a concrete situation. Some examples extracted from one year of the practice of an expert law translator (German-French) at the Court of Appeal in the Alsace region illustrate our claim and underpin an approach of legal translation and its heuristics that is both pragmatic and reflexive.

Following in the rich intellectual footsteps of Emile Durkheim, Karl Mannheim, Alfred Schutz, and Ludwik Fleck, this chapter lays out the foundations for the sociology of thinking, or “cognitive sociology.” Focusing on the impersonal, normative, and conventional dimensions of the way we think (and, as such, on its distinctness from both cognitive individualism and universalism), it highlights the distinctly sociological concern with intersubjectivity as well as epistemic commitment to the study of thought communities, cognitive traditions, cognitive norms, cognitive socialization, cognitive conventions, and the politics of cognition.
