This article deals with the history of women through their memories, as well as their reports impetrated by oral history. In this way, we analyze the basic concepts that surround our theme, such as the gender category, power relations throughout history and the silencing of women in historiography, in order to show how women's history has been consolidated in the scientific field. The work was based on a bibliographical and conceptual analysis, using authors such as Scott (1994, 1995, 2000, 2008), Tedeschi (2014, 2015), Venson and Pedro (2012) and Salvatici (2005), which they address this theme in their descriptions. Henceforth, this collection and analysis of information based on the aforementioned authors, the necessary and pertinent subsidies for the construction of this article were achieved and, as a result, it is verified that the genesis of women's history takes place in the 60’s, concurrently with consolidation of oral history.
