11. Teoría de la Historia
• Es el conjunto de las
corrientes que a través del
tiempo
han
pretendido
explicar el devenir de éste.
• La Historia se caracteriza por
ofrecer una interpretación
(hermenéutica) de los hechos
históricos.
• También se le conoce como
Historiología.
12. Teoría de la Historia
• En la mayoría de ocasiones las
teorías de la historia formulan
los principios generales según
los cuales se pretende explicar
toda la evolución de la
humanidad, sus cambios y
transformaciones,
sus
avances,
retrocesos
o
estancamientos: la búsqueda
de unas leyes últimas por las
cuales se rige el desarrollo
histórico.
13. Teoría de la Historia
• Cuando San Agustín
elaboró su teodicea de la
historia afirmaba que
toda la historia de la
humanidad era el efecto
directo de una sola
causa: la voluntad divina.
14. Teoría de la Historia
• Trece
siglos
más
tarde, Montesquieu, en L’
esprit des lois, buscaba en
los factores geográficos –y
especialmente en el climalas
razones
que
determinaban
las
evoluciones
sociales, aunque ya situaba
la historia en un nivel
estrictamente humano.
15. Teoría de la Historia
• Y cuando en el siglo
XIX, Marx se desmarcaba
de las teorías universalistas
y metafísicas y enunciaba el
principio según el cual
«toda la historia de la
humanidad hasta nuestros
días es la historia de la
lucha de clases», situaba
en el terreno de las
relaciones
sociales
la
casuística fundamental de la
evolución social.
16. Teoría de la Historia
• Marrou, sin embargo, entiende
por teoría la posición que
consciente
o
inconscientemente adopta el
historiador con respecto al
pasado: elección y delimitación
del
tema,
cuestiones
planteadas, conceptos a que se
recurre y, principalmente, tipos
de relaciones, sistemas de
interpretación, valor relativo que
a cada uno se le adjudica.
17. Historiografía
• Es la historia
historia escrita.
de
la
• Todos los aspectos de la
realidad han evolucionado

21. Carácter polisémico de la Historia
• La polisemia representa
la
pluralidad
de
significados de una
palabra.
• De ahí que el carácter
polisémico de la historia
corresponda
a
la
enorme variedad de
significados
que
posee el concepto.
22. Definiciones de Historia
„ “La reunión de todo el
conocimiento humano a
través del tiempo”

la
26. Definiciones de Historia
• Por su carácter universal, la
historia está relacionada con
todos los aspectos del
conocimiento y la realidad; el
papa León XIII, creador del
pensamiento social de la
iglesia romana, señaló: “La
Historia de la Iglesia debe
enseñarse con probidad;
Dios no necesita mentiras”.
27. Herodoto (484 – 425 a.C.)
• Reconocido como “el padre
de la historia”
• Su obra estaba escrita en
dialecto jónico, y más tarde
fue
dividida
por
los
gramáticos de Alejandría en
nueve libros que tomaron el
nombre de las nueve musas
de la mitología griega:
28. Herodoto (484 – 425 a.C.)
• Calíope, Clío, Talía, Euterpe, Ter
psícore, Melpómene, Erato, Uran
ia y Polimnia. Todas ellas, hijas
de Zeus y Mnemoside. Estas
musas eran consideradas como
las protectoras de las artes, la
memoria y la astronomía.
• Su obra simplemente se llamó
Historiae, cuyo nombre deriva
de la palabra griega investigación
o búsqueda.
30. Historia como realidad
Cuando la forma de trabajo de historia
dejó de ser la crónica y se convirtió en
ciencia social, surgió una interrogante:
¿qué es la realidad?
31. Historia como realidad
Batalla de
Tampico, 1829
La historia estudia y
analiza los hechos
históricos.
Un hecho es algo
que tiene existencia
física
y
social
concreta y puede ser
observado
directamente por los
sentidos.
32. Historia como realidad
La historia necesita de una
metodología
heurística
para
localizar
sus
fuentes,
catalogarlas
y
verificarlas.
Una vez que se encuentran
las fuentes, se debe
comprobar su credibilidad.
33. Historia como realidad
Lo que no hace la
Historia:
No
predice
el
futuro,
ni
lo
estudia,
ni
lo
adivina.
No
admite
elucubraciones.
¿Qué
hubiera
pasado si…?
35. Para el estudio
de la historia se
toman en cuenta
diversos factores
que
se
concatenan
y
nos presentan el
marco
contextual
del
hecho histórico
a estudiar.
37. El tiempo para la historia puede ser el inicio
y el fin de algún proceso o momento
histórico.
Según Fernand Braudel existen tres
categorías históricas para describir el tiempo:
tiempo corto, tiempo medio y tiempo largo.
40. Duración
Corresponde la duración al tiempo que
dura algo, o al que transcurre entre el
inicio y el final de un proceso.
Se representa mediante líneas de tiempo.
41. Coyuntura
Es lo opuesto a lo estructural, no es
permanente; es dinámico y continuo, ya que
solo se encuentra en un período de tiempo
corto o de transición a otro tiempo.
44. Actores de la Historia
• La Historia es la Historia del ser
humano, por ello él es el principal
actor,
pero
también
existen
procesos, las coyunturas que se
concretan en un hecho.
• Actor individual, v.gr. Cuauhtémoc y
Hernán Cortés, ambos representan
momentos clave en el proceso que llevó
a cabo la conquista.
45. Actores de la Historia
• Los
actores
colectivos,
puede
decirse que son los
indígenas que se aliaron
a los españoles, las
deidades mexicas y la
Trinidad.
• La conjunción de actores
individuales y colectivos
muestra
el
devenir
histórico.
46. Fuentes de la Historia
• Son el material del que parte la
investigación histórica y están
representadas por toda clase de
evidencias que pueden utilizarse
para
conocer,
analizar
y
comprender lo que ha ocurrido en
el pasado.
47. Fuentes de la Historia
• Primarias

hecho.
