Abstract:

The Anthropocene must also be seen as the convergence of the historicization of nature and human historicity, not simply metaphorically, but factually. As historical time is injected in nature (which putatively was beyond historical time) through anthropogenesis, resulting in our having to see nature as a product of a historical process, our understanding of time is being transformed. The Anthropocene must be understood as a temporalization of time tout court. The key concern is what could be called an Anthropocenic matrix of intelligibility and its corresponding image of Anthropos. In the tim

Abstract:

Methodologies of historical sociology face research problems centered on the instability of historical referents, their historical non-independence, and the privileging of objective time of the clock and calendar. The present essay, by reflecting on an analysis of the apocalyptic in the long run (Hall 2009), proposes the potential to solve these problems by way of a phenomenology of history, which analyzes the enactment and interplay of multiple social temporalities. Whereas high-modern theories of modernity tended to portray a secular trend toward the triumph of rationalized social order cent

Abstract:

Does archeology only handles the past? Is studying recent contexts through archeology a valid proposal? The past ten years have seen an increase in the interest of studying the ‘contemporary past’, term infused with a singularity that has been discussed by several archeologists: it is, simultaneously, past and present, rupturing with the concept of linearity of time. This is more perceived in research with historical contexts as the object, because artifacts, documents and oral reports inflate with multiple temporalities the archaeological narratives. In this article, I aim to provoke thought

Abstract:

AbstractMarx's rethinking of the combination between absolute surplus-value and relative surplus-value during the 1860s is very important in order to reconsider the co-presence of different forms of historical temporality and exploitation. Postmodernism presents a picture of a plurality of historical times in which the old lies beside the modern and the sweatshop beside the high-tech factory. Because it fails to provide an explanation of the relation between these forms, postmodernism produces a false image of an 'ahistorical' present.

Abstract:

This article constitutes an endeavor to explore the relationship between figurations of lack and excess and historical time, particularly within the context of the manifold modernist temporalities in Brazil. We undertake this endeavor through a close reading of Oswald de Andrade's Cannibalist Manifesto (1928), aiming to elucidate how the author employs notions of lack and excess to interrogate modern historical time as a device for synchronizing diverse temporalities. In conclusion, we underscore the significance of investigating artifacts of historical expression beyond conventional historiog

Abstract:

The concept of fabrique urbaine can be described as a socio-spatial process of development of ordinary towns and cities. Practices and representations of the residents and other users of urban areas must be first analysed as a series of historical moments, which may be termed ‘social temporalities’. Then the spatial structure of the town, especially its plots, the aggregation of plots into street blocks, and the street system, can be precisely described, but with its own temporalities, and only as the final result of the history of the inhabitants.

Abstract:

For historians, questions about what to call particular eras and how to conceptualize the temporal dynamics of change become particularly acute as we take on revisionist projects, such as writing and teaching feminist history, examining chronologically “deep” history, or placing history in a material as well as a social environment and in a global perspective. Temporal frameworks influence historical research even when it is located within a very limited time frame; temporalities and periodizations operate more explicitly in the teaching of survey courses.

This article uses the example of alcohol regulation in England and Wales to explore how historical change can be understood within criminology. Pivoting away from criminology’s tendency to understand historical change as occurring in rapid, radical bursts (usually followed by periods of stability), it takes inspiration from the emerging use of historical institutionalist and Koselleckian approaches within historical criminology. Alcohol regulationin England and Wales is complex, overlapping and sometimes even contradictory. It is shown here that this regulatory messiness reflects the plurality

This paper explores the multilayered sense of time in Isabella Bird’s letters and their impact on contemporary epistolary works. Her travelogue, Unbeaten Tracks in Japan (1880), offers a perspective on Japan’s cultural and social evolution during the late nineteenth century. Her letters capture the intermingling of two different historical times in Japan: a traditional way of life that had existed for centuries and the newly introduced, Westernized modern Japan. I argue that Bird’s writing also portrays the coexistence of two different temporalities—her contemporary, or ‘historical’ time, and

In opposition to the female Bildungsroman , which maps maturation via hegemonic temporal structures—historical, narrative, reproductive—the culinary-roman cleaves development from heteropatriarchal time.

Abstract As human activities increasingly shape the material reality of the earth, it becomes important to embed the temporalities of human experience and history in the larger context of planetary temporalities.

In a first step, I show how the relation of geological ‘deep time’ to historical time in modern geology is dominantly constructed as a dichotomy and how this dichotomic construction troubles the Anthropocene

As such, it offers a provocation to Reception Studies to engage with exemplarity both in and as a more deliberate and strategic manner.

Following Suzanne Bost, I think of this process as a way of ‘feeling pre-Columbian’.

Abstract:

Time is a central theme in Eduardo Lourenço’s essays, particularly his reflections on Portuguese and Brazilian temporality. He explores the unique and untranslatable saudade that defines the Portuguese labyrinth of identity, marked by two phases: the realistic identity of a small crusading nation engaged with Europe and the hyper-identity of an imperial dream, isolated as an island-refuge. Lourenço examines the Portuguese tendency to avoid reality and the excess of historical weight—past, eternal present, and identity—that risks overshadowing the concrete present and future.

Abstract:

Jennifer Nansubuga Makumbi’s novel Kintu (2014) places alongside forms of historical fiction familiar to European readers, a form of historical causality that obeys a different logic, namely, one governed by the long-term efficacity of a curse uttered in pre-colonial Buganda. The novel can be read as a historiographical experiment. It sets in a relationship of ‘proximity’ linear historical narration as understood within the framework of European historicism and the genre of the historical novel theorised by Lukács, and notions of magical ‘verbal-incantatory’ and ‘somatic’ history that elude th

This research article is an attempt to investigate the conceptual development in historical theory to understand knowledge production in contemporary culture of concepts. The contested nature of historical theory evolves with different measures to reconstruct different ideas in historical writings and to communicate and brings the process of historical temporalities alongside. This article deals with epistemic challenges and its implication in building historical theory. Postmodern culture encounters objectivity, positivism and modernist representation in historical discourse, which brought co

This article studies the post-revolutionary social situation in Iran as a peripheral country, through the novels written and awarded in this historical moment. The narrative temporality and its rapport with the subjectivity that is constructed by and at the same time constructing a novel, is a pivotal formal characteristic, through which this essay engages with the analysis of Iran's post-revolutionary society after 1979 uprising. The discussion is concentrated on the awarded persian novels in three mainstream festivals, in the years between 2001 to 2011. This decade is specifically significan

Abstract:

This paper joins the debate of a still-expanding literature on queer temporalities that, among other things, raises the question of a queer-specific construction of time. This specific temporality is what I call queerchronotopia. By setting the description of the historical worldview (as described by Reinhart Koselleck, Sepp Gumbrecht, and François Hartog) against queer methodologies developed by scholars like Paul B. Preciado and Jack J. Halberstam, this article claims that, since the last decades of the nineteenth century, definitions and embodiments of queerness and a queer-specific tempora

Abstract:

Set in mid-eighteenth century London, Emma Donoghue's first historical novel, Slammerkin reconstructs the life of a teenage girl hanged in 1764 for the murder of her mistress and, in doing so, attempts to position the girl's murderous outburst as a reaction to the psychical traumas suffered throughout the course of her short and brutal life. This essay attends to the temporal aspects of Slammerkin in order to examine how the novel offers a subtle queering of both temporal normativity and the sequential temporal logic that heteronormative culture is contingent upon. Moreover, it explores how Do

AbstractNumerous commentators have recently indicated a prevailing sense among South africans of a historical repetition, a pervasive sentiment that the country has failed to shake off the legacy of apartheid, which extends into the present, and possibly also the future. 1 Such an observation has led South African psychologist, derek Hook, to conclude that in order to adequately address the post-apartheid reality and allow the process of working through trauma, there is a need to abandon the linear Judeo-Christian model of time derived from the Enlightenment. Instead, Hook advocates to start t

Abstract:

The longstanding line of research that the analytic tradition calls metaphysics of time remains quite ignored by the theory of history. To bring them closer, this study proposes to introduce to historians and theorists of history the metaphysics of time theses about the presentism/eternalism and the linear/closed time. For such purpose, we drew correspondences between the theory of history and the analytical metaphysics of time concerning some characteristics of the emerging concepts of historical time. These characteristics are related to the recent debate about presentism regarding the regim

As much as news websites news can be characterised by speed and immediacy, they are also recognisable online periodicals, which accumulate preceding news items. This is, as with the constitution of time in general, linked to relations between change and continuity. This article aims to understand how the temporalities of online news have developed since the first news sites in the mid-1990s. The analytical starting point for this is that such temporalities must be understood as a complex interplay between textual elements on different and overlapping levels of the webpage.

Abstract The purpose of this paper is to re-read Marx’s Eighteenth Brumaire by highlighting the political meaning of a materialist historiography. In the first part, I consider Marx’s historiographical and political intention to represent the history of the aftermath of the revolution of ’48 as a farce in order to liquidate ‘any faith in the superstitious past’. In the second part I analyse the theatrical register chosen by Marx in order to represent the Second Empire as a society without a body, a phantasmagoria in which the Constitution, the National Assembly and law – in short, everything t
