Resumo: In this article we explore the British editorial project of the UniversalHistory and its reception in the Lusophone world in the late eighteenthcentury. Focusing on the changes in the experience of history, we analyzehow this project was designed to attend to the aspirations of an expandingreadership and the rise of different temporal experiences existing in thatworld. We argued that these new expectations for a cosmopolitan viewof the historical process couldn’t emerge only from the boundaries oftraditional narratives focused in rhetorical decorum and demands from thecontemporary erudite scholarship in the academies. Lastly, we investigatehow Antônio de Moraes Silva, a Luso-Brazilian man of letters, compiledand translated the History of Portugal from a French extended edition ofthe Universal History. Our main intention was to show how this editionhighlights the impossibility of establishing a uniform and harmoniousrepresentation of the historical process and events in a context ofdissolution of the traditional functions of historical discourse.

Investiga-se como este projeto foiempreendido visando atender aos anseios de um público leitor em expansãoe como esse fenômeno afetou os modos de representar e experimentara história. Uma nova visão cosmopolita do processo histórico precisoudistender os limites tradicionais do decoro narrativo e das demandas porerudição vigentes nas academias ilustradas, emergindo paralelamenteoutras variedades de produção historiográfica. Na dimensão lusa, investigasecomo Antônio de Moraes Silva traduziu e compilou a História dePortugal a partir de uma edição francesa ampliada da Universal History.Procuramos demonstrar como as transformações dessa narrativa através dasdiversas edições sinalizam a crescente dificuldade de se estabelecer umarepresentação unívoca e harmônica dos eventos e processos históricos.Universidade Federal de São Paulo2022-01-02info:eu-repo/semantics/articleinfo:eu-repo/semantics/publishedVersionapplication/pdfapplication/pdfhttps://periodicos.unifesp.br/index.php/alm/article/view/1324910.1590/2236-463320151013Almanack; No. 10 (2015)Almanack; Núm. 10 (2015)Almanack; n. 10 (2015)2236-4633reponame:Almanack (Guarulhos)instname:Universidade Federal de São Paulo (UNIFESP)instacron:UNIFESPengporhttps://periodicos.unifesp.br/index.php/alm/article/view/13249/9284https://periodicos.unifesp.br/index.php/alm/article/view/13249/9285Copyright (c) 2022 Valdei Lopes de Araujo, André Ramoshttps://creativecommons.org/licenses/by/4.0info:eu-repo/semantics/openAccessLopes de Araujo, Valdei Ramos, André 2022-01-02T20:29:40Zoai:ojs.pkp.sfu.ca:article/13249Revistahttps://periodicos.unifesp.br/index.php/almPUBhttps://periodicos.unifesp.br/index.php/alm/oaialmanack@unifesp.br||andremachados@yahoo.com.br2236-46332236-4633opendoar:2022-01-02T20:29:40Almanack (Guarulhos) - Universidade Federal de São Paulo (UNIFESP)false
