This article attempts to freely reflect, within the Historiography and historical methodology, the question of styles and models of presenting historiographic texts. Its intent is to question pre-established patterns of historiographical texts and the restrictions occasionally imposed academically to the historian language under the guise (pretense) of “scientific objectivity”. At the same time, it examines the contribution of some historians who, within the last decade, have endeavored to discuss those problems or who have produced creative historiographical works in new styles, languages and patterns of representation.
