What is Unhistoricism

The researchers propose a review on the notion of gender in Antiquity through its sources in order to manifest the dissonances between the systems that regulated social gender in different eras. Our current gender binary is rooted in enlightened medical studies 19th positivism, which rejected the extended previous idea that humans were born within an only sex that presented different degrees of development. Therefore, this previous conception understood that gender was a technology developed for social purposes and dissociated it from the also constructed notion of sex. After analyzing the potentiality of this matter, the authors proceed to examine the notion of the decolonization of classics. Teaching methodologies and focuses will be provided to stimulate this process.
