1. HuD. History and Ethics 32

(10/1/03)


It assaults the question to me If it is that the historians we did not express our historical opinion, knowing full well that we are even mediatizados, why we are historians? I have the impression that History is becoming Philosophy or Theory of History. He is useful to try to reconstruct mentally the past? Sera the so single result imaginary or a literary construction - Echo -?

Me asalta la pregunta Si es que los historiadores no expresamos nuestra opinión histórica, aun a sabiendas de que estamos mediatizados, ¿para qué somos historiadores? Tengo la impresión de que la Historia se está convirtiendo en Filosofía o Teoría de la Historia. ¿Es útil tratar de reconstruir mentalmente el pasado? ¿Sera el resultado tan solo un imaginario o una construcción literaria -Eco-?
