Memorial Conference for Sándor Tonk at Kolozsvár/Cluj. On 5th and 6th of October 2018 colleagues, friends and admirers remembered for the early died Mr. Sándor Tonk who was an excellent ...representative of the Transylvanian Hungarian histography. The memorial conference was organized by the Research Institute of the Transylvanian Museum Society, Sapientia Hungarian University of Transylvania, and Department of the Hungarian History of Babeş-Bolyai University. Those researchers of the above mentioned institutes and Hungarian historians took part at the conference whose research matter was close to the activity of Sándor Tonk or to the Transylvanian histography. The essay below reflects the summarized lectures of the conference and states that in Transylvania a new generation of historians has grown up which continues the work of Sándor Tonk and other historians and develops the Hungarian histography with their new conclusions.
Il saggio ripercorre l'evolversi della storiografia sulla costituzione risorgimentale nel corso degli ultimi trenta-quarant'anni. La novita di questa fase e data dal definitivo abbandono, da parte ...degli storici, di quella visione teleologica del processo di costruzione nazionale che si sottendeva quasi sempre alle ricostruzioni precedenti. La lotta per la costituzione che vede impegnate le elites risorgimentali a partire dalla fine del Settecento non e piu assunta, oggi, come il riflesso di una generica tendenza alla modernizzazione sociale, ma come l'effetto di fenomeni specifici, di cui spetta allo storico individuare di volta in volta le dinamiche e le scansioni. La scoperta della costituzione, insomma (concetto, quest'ultimo, radicalmente estraneo alla cultura di un'Italia protomoderna in cui lo Stato, come semplice aggregato di corpi e di comunita, non aveva mai avvertito il bisogno di 'costituirsi' unitariamente in qualsivoglia maniera), non ha niente di ovvio e di naturale. E l'articolo offre appunto una panoramica di come la nostra storiografia si stia misurando con questo intrigante sfida esplicativa.
The purpose of this article is to investigate the historicity of disciplinary forms, investigating the criteria which guide the conditions for the emergence of the discipline of history, as well as ...its current (possible) exhaustion and crisis. In a context in which historical culture is disseminated by different media, and in which the fragmentation and plurality of identities--via memory --are far more highly valued than homogeneity--by means of the discipline of history--, it is important to investigate how historians of the present redefine their identity and approach this juncture between the disciplinary tradition and contemporary demands. Keywords: humanities; historian; discipline. O objetivo deste artigo e refletir sobre a historicidade das formas disciplinares, investigando os criterios que balizaram as condicoes de emergencia da disciplina historica, assim como seus atuais (possiveis) esgotamento e crise. Em uma conjuntura em que a cultura historica se difunde por meio de diferentes midias, nas quais se valoriza muito mais a fragmentacao e a pluralizacao, via memoria, do que uma homogeneizacao, via historia disciplinar, torna-se importante investigar os modos pelos quais os historiadores hoje redefinem sua identidade, enfrentando esse encontro entre a tradicao disciplinar e as demandas contemporaneas. Palavras-chave: humanidades; historiador; disciplina.
This “Viewpoint” section takes up the question of what, if anything, historians of science can learn from The History Manifesto, initially published in the fall of 2014. One summary, two essay ...reviews, and nine short comments are followed by remarks by the authors of the manifesto, Jo Guldi and David Armitage.
The author through a tour of the epochal readings, that is tos ay on the iconic dates of 711 and 1609 (the arrival of the muslims to the Iberian from North of Africa and the expellion of Moors from ...it), from it situates us in front of concept such as narrativity, related to "incompletude" of the historical Spanish narration, or paradigm, in relation to the distilled "goodness!" by the Andalusí period. It proposes to the historians to use anthropological mechanisms of interpretation to leave a debate that is still today vitiated by irreducible oppositions in the reading of the Iberian past. El autor a través de un recorrido por las lecturas epocales realizadas sobre las fechas icónicas del 711, es decir de la llegada de los musulmanes norteafricanos a la península ibérica, y de 1609, fecha de la expulsión de los moriscos de esta, nos sitúa frente a conceptos tales como narratividad, en función de la incompletude de la narración histórica española, o paradigma, en relación con el buenismo destilado por el período andalusí. Propone a los historiadores emplear mecanismos antropológicos de interpretación para salir de un debate que aún hoy día se presenta viciado por oposiciones irreductibles en la lectura del pasado ibérico. Keywords: Islamic invasion, Moorish expulsion, Spanish narration, historical anthropology, al--Andalus paradigm. Palabras clave: invasión islámica, expulsión morisca, narración española, antropología histórica, paradigma de al-Ándalus.
