Cet article decrit et analyse quelques souvenirs d'enfance et de jeunesse de sept aines d'origine vietnamienne, trois femmes et quatre hommes, habitant maintenant a Montreal et a Quebec. Ces souvenirs font partie de recits de vie recueillis aupres de ces aines en 2003, lors de la preparation d'un outil de sensibilisation au pluralisme culturel. En mettant en lumiere les points forts de ces recits (propos tenus par les aines sur leur enfance, leur jeunesse et la pertinence de leurs traditions en contexte migratoire), nous tentons de degager les traits culturels distinctifs que chacun d'eux met en exergue. Cette mise en exergue permet de toucher aux fondements memes du processus identitaire, en faisant appel a la memoire profonde des aines et en mettant les souvenirs d'enfance et de jeunesse qui ont marque leur enculturation premiere en contraste avec leur vie actuelle au Quebec. En permettant l'expression et la communication de cette memoire, le recit de vie d'immigres ouvre donc une fenetre sur la maniere dont l'identite culturelle se construit et est rememoree. * This article describes and analyses a few childhood and youth memories of seven elders of Vietnamese origin, three women and four men, now living in Montreal and Quebec City. These memories are part of the life narratives collected from these elders in 2003 during the preparation of a tool designed to raise awareness of cultural pluralism. By highlighting the strong points of these narratives (remarks made by elders concerning their childhood, their youth, and the relevance of their traditions in a migratory context), we are attempting to isolate the specific cultural traits that each of them is underlining. This in turn makes it possible to touch the very foundations of the identity process by calling upon the deep memories of the elders and by contrasting the memorable events of childhood and youth that marked their primary enculturation with their current lives in Quebec. By enabling the expression and communication of this living memory, the immigrant's life narrative opens a window upon the way that cultural identity is built and recollected.
