Resumo: This article discusses the function of history in the thought of Thomas Hobbes. The first part of the article considers Hobbes’s critique on the importance bestowed to experience and history by the classical humanist tradition, and his defense of the epistemic superiority of reason and philosophy. The second part focuses on his posthumous work An Historical Narration Concerning Heresy (1680), interpreting it in the light of the ecclesiastical history genre conventions and the English Restoration time’s political and religious debates. Finally, this study argues that this oeuvre is a kind of theoretically informed history, conceived to be a rhetorically effective intervention on a contemporary debate on heresy and its punishment, and on the ecclesiastical jurisdiction.

A primeira parte do artigo trata da crítica de Hobbes à importância conferida à experiência e à história pela tradição clássico-humanista e de sua defesa da superioridade epistêmica da razão e da filosofia. A segunda parte concentra-se em sua obra postumamente publicada, An Historical Narration Concerning Heresy (1680), buscando interpretá-la à luz das convenções do gênero da história eclesiástica e dos debates político-religiosos do período da Restauração inglesa. Argumenta-se, finalmente, que essa obra é um tipo de história teoricamente informada, concebida para se constituir como uma intervenção retoricamente efetiva em um debate contemporâneo acerca da heresia e de sua punição e da jurisdição eclesiásticaSociedade Brasileira de Teoria e História da Historiografia, Universidade Federal de Ouro Preto, Universidade Federal do Estado do Rio de Janeiro2017-10-31info:eu-repo/semantics/articleinfo:eu-repo/semantics/publishedVersionapplication/pdfhttps://www.historiadahistoriografia.com.br/revista/article/view/109810.15848/hh.v0i24.1098História da Historiografia: International Journal of Theory and History of Historiography; Vol. 10 No. 24 (2017)História da Historiografia: International Journal of Theory and History of Historiography; Vol. 10 Núm. 24 (2017)História da Historiografia: International Journal of Theory and History of Historiography; v. 10 n. 24 (2017)1983-9928reponame:História da Historiografiainstname:Universidade Federal de Ouro Preto (UFOP)instacron:UFOPporhttps://www.historiadahistoriografia.com.br/revista/article/view/1098/683Duarte, João de Azevedo e Diasinfo:eu-repo/semantics/openAccess2020-05-02T02:37:09Zoai:ojs.www.historiadahistoriografia.com.br:article/1098Revistahttps://www.historiadahistoriografia.com.br/revistaPUBhttps://www.historiadahistoriografia.com.br/revista/oaivaldei354@gmail.com || historiadahistoriografia@hotmail.com1983-99281983-9928opendoar:2020-05-02T02:37:09História da Historiografia - Universidade Federal de Ouro Preto (UFOP)false
