Sumario:This paper explores how the popularization of history in museums, based on recent historiographic contributions, coexists with the historical ideas held by their visitors. The analysis is based on the author's experience in conveying content about the Revolution of Independence at the Museo del Cabildo de Buenos Aires and the Museo Histórico Nacional (Argentina). The paper discusses the presence of a “revisionist common sense”, as posited by some historians, and proposes the primacy among the publics of a “patriotic common sense,” developed in elementary school.
