Resumo: This paper discusses theoretical issues raised by studying Brazilian professional historiography through the concepts of “epistemic virtue” and “scholarly persona” as proposed by Herman Paul. Transitioning from 19th century Western Europe to late 20th century Brazil, or to any other historical situation, for that matter, might result in problems if one assumes these concepts are designed to explain only a specific historical situation. I try to solve such problems by situating both working concepts in relation to a broader horizon, that of the practice of subjectivation. In this sense, constellations of epistemic virtues and the whole body of practices related to the scholarly self should be understood as instances of the broader games of power which establish the norms governing a specific field.

A transição da Europa Ocidental do séc. XIX para o Brasil de finais do séc. XX, ou para qualquer outra situação histórica, pode revelar-se problemática se se assumir que estesconceitos servem para explicar apenas uma situação histórica específica. Procuro resolver esses problemas situando ambos osconceitos relativamente a um horizonte mais vasto, o da prática de subjectivação. Neste sentido, as constelações de virtudesepistémicas e todo o conjunto de práticas relacionadas com a identidade académica devem ser entendidos como instâncias de jogos de poder mais abrangentes, os quais estabelecem as normas que governam um campo específico.Faculdade de Ciências Sociais e Humanas da Universidade NOVA de Lisboa2021-02-13info:eu-repo/semantics/publishedVersioninfo:eu-repo/semantics/articleapplication/pdfhttps://doi.org/10.48487/pdh.2016.n2.23297https://doi.org/10.48487/pdh.2016.n2.23297Práticas da História.
