Abstract

In this article, some reflections on the systematization of knowledge found in two works
by the medieval master Hugo de Saint-Victor (1096-1141) are presented: Didascalicon, the art of reading
and De sacramentis christianae fidei. The main objective of the text is to show how this thinker attached
importance to history and memory in the teaching of students at the School of the Abbey of SaintVictor, in view of its primary purpose: wisdom. When studying the History of Education, it is
understood that the reflection on values, regardless of their historical period of elaboration, is relevant
to human formation. Thus, it is understood that past and present are related and that, without this
perception, it is not possible to understand educational priorities at different historical moments. By disregarding memory and historical knowledge, a civilization is bewildered, because when the past is
not known, the present is not aware of and the future is not seen.
