Necesidad y conveniencia de estudiar la historia patria
(Hospitalidad ESDAI, 2006)
Saltiel Miranda, Ana
;
Campus Ciudad de México
The suggestive title that José Ma. Vigil assigned to a short but interesting study has been taken advantage of in order to focus herein the content of the present research. The objective is not to understand whatever occurred in our territory for more than 500 years, but to highlight the Mexicans' need of knowing our own History better, with the conviction that the past constitutes us further than ideological or religious attitudes or diverging political positions. More concretely, the paper pretends to analyze, under the perspective of some authors —quite a few, considering the wide production about this topic—, the need of recovering equanimity about the novo Hispanic reality of our tradition, regarding post-revolutionary theories that have pretended to disconnect its former historiography and cultural elaboration by substituting it with a tendency of the Jacobin revolutionary thrust that condemns all past. There is no doubt that the last generations have been formed within a mingled historic context of this time, plethoric of a positivist and liberal methodology, with a strong socialist and utilitarian influence. It is important, once the Revolution and its structures are reviewed, to look back —into the own and intimate— in order to revalue whatever this past encloses as a part of the own identity and to discern the thorns this past presents and still projects in the present.
