Resumo: During the course of Modernity, history has developed into a discipline and gained the scientific status it holds today. This period has seen the rise of a hermeneutical issue: some historiographical standards were established and applied to History works to decide whether or not they could be classified as Historiography. This article approaches the theme from the perspective of the history of concepts (Begriffsgeschichte), analyzing the twelfth book of Polybius of Megalopolis – a rich historical source offering insight into how history was written in antiquity. Focusing on the historiographical genre of Polybius and its epistemology, this analysis corroborates the thesis that the modern classification of the History of Historiography contradicts the very notion of Historismus by judging works that do not belong to this time and space according to modern criteria. This represents a sort of anachronism, subjecting ancient historiography to the partiality of Western historiography.

Nesse período, surgiram regras e condições para que um trabalho fosse classificado como historiográfico, sendo aplicadas a textos de diferentes lugares e tempos. O problema interpretativo de tal posicionamento é abordado neste artigo, a partir da história dos conceitos (Begriffsgeschichte), por meio de uma análise do “Livro XII” de Políbio de Megalópolis, uma fonte histórica privilegiada para compreender como se fazia história na Antiguidade. Após nos determos brevemente sobre o gênero historiográfico polibiano e os domínios de sua epistemologia, corroboramos a tese de que a moderna classificação da história da historiografia é excludente e contradiz o próprio historicismo ao aplicar critérios modernos a trabalhos não pertencentes a essa delimitação espaço-temporal, praticando uma espécie de anacronismo ao julgar a historiografia antiga a partir da ótica da historiografia moderna.Sociedade Brasileira de Teoria e História da Historiografia, Universidade Federal de Ouro Preto, Universidade Federal do Estado do Rio de Janeiro2022-12-31info:eu-repo/semantics/articleinfo:eu-repo/semantics/publishedVersionAvaliado pelos paresapplication/pdfhttps://www.historiadahistoriografia.com.br/revista/article/view/196010.15848/hh.v15i40.1960História da Historiografia: International Journal of Theory and History of Historiography; Vol. 15 No. 40 (2022); 162-185História da Historiografia: International Journal of Theory and History of Historiography; Vol. 15 Núm. 40 (2022); 162-185História da Historiografia: International Journal of Theory and History of Historiography; v. 15 n. 40 (2022); 162-1851983-9928reponame:História da Historiografiainstname:Universidade Federal de Ouro Preto (UFOP)instacron:UFOPporhttps://www.historiadahistoriografia.com.br/revista/article/view/1960/1013Copyright (c) 2022 Dyel da Silva; Dominique Santoshttps://creativecommons.org/licenses/by/4.0info:eu-repo/semantics/openAccessda Silva, DyelSantos, Dominique2022-12-31T16:27:51Zoai:ojs.www.historiadahistoriografia.com.br:article/1960Revistahttps://www.historiadahistoriografia.com.br/revistaPUBhttps://www.historiadahistoriografia.com.br/revista/oaivaldei354@gmail.com || historiadahistoriografia@hotmail.com1983-99281983-9928opendoar:2022-12-31T16:27:51História da Historiografia - Universidade Federal de Ouro Preto (UFOP)false
