Abstract

 

In this essay, different understandings in education field about the history’s subject and time are addressed from Julio Cortázar’s fiction literature and Michel Foucault’s effective history. Starting with a cotazarian short story, time and subject are discussed as constituted in historical context. These cortazarian’s ideas are articulated with foucaultian denial of subject doubles and time as a motor of history. Foucault and Cortázar are taken to problematize education field and to reconstruct time and subject conceptions.
