Contando História através de Estória: Processo estoricizante e o storytelling como forma alternativa de transmissão de fatos históricos

Abstract

This article seeks to reflect on the condition of historical fiction as an alternative way of telling History through fiction, that is, through stories. From a debate about the tradition of storytelling and its possible tensions with historiography, there is the construction of a theoretical concept of our authorship: the storicizing process. Thus, the article proposes to define the concept, to demonstrate its existence in a Brazilian and international tradition of transmitting historical facts, whether in journalism or literature, as well as to highlight some productions, including from the author himself who develops postdoctoral studies on the theme.
