Resumen

CARBONARI, María Rosa. The historical construction of a society once frontier: Crosses with the macro - historiography). Rev. Esc. Hist. [online]. 2010, vol.9, n.1. ISSN 1669-9041.

From a traditional perspective, the historical discourse has had the social function to build a collective uniform identity. For that, it has used of a narrative centered in a past useful to those who represented the leaders. In this sense, the task of the historian was to keep the continuity of effort's tradition until the victory. In this argumentative line, they have honored to the subjects which actions developed later into victory. That's why the construction of the foundational memory was also a support for a social identity that, transmitted from generation to generation, would make possible the empathy with such tradition. In the Río Cuarto region, conflictive scenario of dissimilar ways of social organization (from XVII to XIX), when it was concluding the fight for the appropriation of the space, it was preparing a history that would described "the hard battle between the Civilization and the Desert". This history, functional to the victorious forces, took as register and model to his proper ancestors. In this construction, there were first the actors themselves and then the "memorialistas" of the past (ecclesiastics, militaries, journalists, politicians, writers) those who gave support to this discourse of the past. In this work, we try to show that despite of the actual historiographics changes, these are not enough to lead into a crisis to the legitimated historical version of this once borderline society.

Palabras clave : Historiography; Region; Border; Río Cuarto.
