摘要：In this article I analyse the role of interpretation and explanation in the field of sciences in general and in social and historical sciences in particular. I argue for the specificity of the narrative model in social and historical sciences. Then, I examine the thesis that personal identity or self is a type of autobiographic story that can show different rank of coherence and integration. Taking the proposal of different authors, I describe and I do a brief characterization of this of narrative creation and the most important element that compose its. Finally, I analyse the thesis that propose to think the psychotherapy as a place for reconstruction of the narrative production of patients for to get more coherent stories.
