MICIELI, Cristina. Acontecimiento y verdad histórica: Una lectura desde la perspectiva ricoeuriana. Tópicos [online]. 2007, n.15, pp.87-98. ISSN 1666-485X.
Ricoeur elaborates a trend of thought about history which shows that behind the analysis of the great periods or historical legalities, the notion of event [happening]remains obscured. From my point of view, the event is the undoubtedly haphazard irruption of an excess which causes the failure of constituted knowledge and obliges to construct a new truth of the situation, i.e., a new way of comprehending it. Ricoeur speaks of representance, and not of reference or representation. Representation being the hegemonic mode of thought which accompanies the advent of modernity, in which the subject of conscience -which is after all always selfconscience- becomes grounding substance. From my point of view, the recoeurian concept of representance surpasses, the presentation/representation device, inasmuch as it gives all its power to what conceals itself form presentation. In fact, there is no relation of production o reduplication between historical narration and past events. The concept of representance distinguishes itself from that of representation because the reference to past is metaphoric. And this metaphor is characterized by a seeing as which has its correlate in a being as. It is a being and not being at the same time. In this article the concepts of event, representance trace and historical truth are bound toghether.
