Theory of History, linguistic turn, narrativismResumen
The linguistic turn in history emerged around 1960, first questioning the scientific value of declarative statements in the discipline and later defending the aesthetic, ethical, and epistemological-cognitive character of narration in historical representation. After decades of heated debate, the linguistic turn went from being a rejected topic to the mainstream, and more recently, to competing with other theoretical perspectives. In this introductory text to the dossier, we intend to question the “after” of the linguistic turn: have its relevant themes been exhausted, as if its program had been fulfilled? Or do its questions and proposals have enough vitality to propel it forward? What contributions can the history of this line of thought still receive? Among the contributions received, there were several answers to these questions, some convergent, others not. Throughout the text, we intend to present them according to how each article responded to the initial questions.
