Practical Past, Historical Past, Historiography, DisciplineAbstract
This text’s aim is to try to provoke some reflections about and for contemporary historiography from the standpoint of Hayden White’s idea of the “practical past” and his criticism of the disciplined “historical past”. Through this, I ponder about some of the theoretical and political possibilities and consequences for a historiography anchored in a practical vision of the past and openly critical of some of the disciplinary traditions and injunctions often naturalized by historians, especially in a context where they seemingly seem to be in crisis, given the changes in the conjuncture that made them possible in the first place.References
