Dear Carlos and dear friends of HaD, the debate seems to me particularly interesting who open, the answer of Maria Alba Shepherd, that I subscribe largely, is to me without a doubt suitable for one from the possible channels of the debate. Commitments of diverse Hindu to him at the moment prevent me to extend to me in this exciting subject, so my message of today is rather to say to them " presents/displays " and to promise shortly a decorosa answer that it contributes in something to this debate and transfondo fundamental that identifies to me deeply with you: the one of the necessity of theoretical-methodologic rescue and renovation and the search, as Carlos Barros says, of this common paradigm, that nonunique, sustained in the possible and real consensuses between the critical community of historians.
