Resumo: This essay discusses an almost forgotten text by Hayden White: a 1959 book review published in the journal Speculum. The brief text offers an interesting glimpse on the medieval historian that was White in 1959 – though one who clearly was on his way of becoming a historical theorist. At the same time, the review raises a number of questions with which historians still find themselves struggling. What are the moral interventions that historians make through their books and articles? And is it true, as White memorably put it, that “no historian worthy of the name is only an historian”?

Este breve texto oferece um interessante vislumbre do medievalista que White ainda era em 1959, embora já a caminho de se tornar um especialista em teoria da história. Simultaneamente, a recensão levanta um conjunto de questões com que os historiadores ainda se deparam hoje em dia. Que intervenções morais faz o historiador através dos seus livros e artigos? E será verdade que, nas palavras de White, “nenhum historiador digno desse nome é apenas um historiador”?Faculdade de Ciências Sociais e Humanas da Universidade NOVA de Lisboa2021-01-21info:eu-repo/semantics/publishedVersioninfo:eu-repo/semantics/articleapplication/pdfhttps://doi.org/10.48487/pdh.2018.n6.22481https://doi.org/10.48487/pdh.2018.n6.22481Práticas da História.
