GILARDI, Pilar. The reconfiguration of time in historiographic narration by Paul Ricoeur. Estud. hist. mod. contemp. Mex [online]. 2011, n.41, pp.103-115. ISSN 0185-2620.

This article seeks to deal with the issue of historical time in the thinking of Paul Ricoeur, particularly within the horizon of Time and narration. From this point onwards the French philosopher realizes the need to deal with the issue of time in general and historical time in particular through narration. So time is configured through three fundamental phenomena in the historical work on which the author will focus: calendar, generation and traces. This analysis of historical time forces one to distinguish it from the time configured in the narration characteristic of fiction, regarding which the author will show his differences and possible confluences.

Keywords : time; history; narration; calendar; generation; traces; fiction.
