Resumen
CHINCHILLA, Perla. History Magistra Vitae and the Practical Past. Hist. graf [online]. 2020, n.55, pp.83-127. Epub 07-Sep-2020. ISSN 1405-0927. https://doi.org/10.48102/hyg.vi55.327.
In his book The Practical Past White makes a diagnosis of the aporia that history has reached as scientific historiography from his perspective, and proposes, from the category of Practical Past, how to explain this course, how to recover his guiding social function of action. Then I will try to synthesize why historiography, from its perspective, took off from that Practical Past throughout the Nineteenth and Twentieth centuries, until it is currently disconnected from it, given the impossibility of converting it, both as an "object of study", on the one hand, as, when separating from the present, abandoning its ancestral role of moral guidance -History Magistra Vitae-, on the other.
