The reach and meaning of Historic periods are a challenge for those who study the subject. This hermeneutic contributes for the enrichment of the study, as much of the events as of the customs and subjects. The understanding of what it is Antiquity, Middle Ages, Early Modern, Contemporary or Postmodernity requires of the researcher, the discovering what is History. Under the perspective of José Honório Rodrigues, for whom the secular classification of History mentions History as knowledge, instead of History as successes, being, therefore, a theoretical construction. The deepened quarrel has as object the Postmodernity, always comparing with Early Modern.
