On the translation of the entry authored by Leonhard von Renthe-Fink}, url={https://praticasdahistoria.pt/article/view/24966}, DOI={10.48487/pdh.2021.n12.24966}, abstractNote={<div class="page" title="Page 2"> <div class="layoutArea"> <div class="column"> <p>After a brief introduction to the philosophy of historicity as discussed in the homonymous entry of the Historisches Wörterbuch der Philosophie (1971-2007), authored by Leonhard von Renthe-Fink, which highlights the key moments of its conceptualization process, this essay starts from where Von Renthe-Fink interrupts his synthetic analysis: Martin Heidegger’sfundamental ontology. From the clarification of the meaning of historicity for Heidegger, this essay also systematises – and therefore highlights – the relevance of Brazilian debates on historicity in the fields of Philosophy and Theory of History. The topic here brought to the fore, and into question – the problem of historicity as the metaphysical foundation of the idea of modern history – is little studied in the Lusophone world in general, and in the Brazilian one in particular.</p> </div> </div> </div>}, number={12}, journal={Práticas da História.
