Abstract

Based on the analysis of two studies carried out in the field of history of historiography and global histories of historiography by Georg Iggers, Q. Edward Wang and Daniel Woolf, this article aims to reflect on the scope and rationale of global history, shedding light on possible conceptual obstacles and contradictions of such perspective of investigation, such as the resilience of Eurocentrism, the determinism of national perspectives and the cultural limits imposed by language mastery.
