Description
Summary:The present text puts in context the civilization process in the chihuahuan historiography of nineteenth century. Using arguments by Norbert Elias and his book the The civilization process, pretends prove how the interpretation about mexican history, particularly from Chihuahua, works under a structure that show the confrontation between the civilization versus barbarism. The historical books to study are intellectual productions from early twenty century that share historiography elements that make them similar, which could well respond to a model, typology or inheritance. This text wants to continue the academic discussion proposed by the historian Luis Aboites in his article about the historiography of Fuentes Mares and the called character of the “criollo chihuahuense” whose origin could be found in the process of civilization. Finally, this article finds its relevance by putting into analysis some of the most notorious intellectual productions about the past that were written at the beginning of the nineteenth century in Chihuahua and finding a relationship and similarities in later works and authors.
