En lineal y en espiral: una mirada histórica-antropológica a las posibilidades del tiempo en el relato historiográfico

Abstract

Time as a structuring category within history has been configured according to the epistemic statutes that this discipline has developed as a canonical element. In this logic, time has been constituted base on those references that eventually lead to the historiographic account as evidence of a particular epistemic moment: we think of a story based on the time we perceive. The possibilities of this dimension as articulator of the story allow us to consciously think about its anthropological position as guarantor of a human condition that allows us to open up new challenges for the trade. To think about time is to think about the story and is to think about the dialogue that the text, context and writter finally acquires. Spiral thinking, a reading proposal of the indigenous world, is understood as a possibility that recognizes in the reflection on temporality the attitude necessary to extend the limits of the same job and its understanding.
