- Complexity theory and the historical study of religion: navigating the transdisciplinary space between the Humanities and the Natural Sciences Thales Silva Historia Methodology Digital Humanities Interdisciplinarity This article advocates for a set of recent transdisciplinary options for the History of Religion, combining methods from the Natural and Human Sciences, through a special focus on the study of so-called “complex systems”. We elucidate their theoretical bases and limitations while assuming a pragmatic positioning between a defense of the historicalscientific study of religion and the promotion of groundbreaking methodological outlooks emerging from the Digital Humanities. From this background, throughout the text, we argue for a complementation of historiographical “close reading” with both “distant reading” techniques and interdisciplinary research, using computer-based methods and a diversity of formal modeling techniques. In short, we conclude that such methods offer novel ways for data representation and are best understood not only as creative schemes for solving issues in historiography, but also as a springboard for new inquiries arising from the transdisciplinarity between the Humanities and the Natural Sciences. 2021 artículo científico 1983-9928 https://www.redalyc.org/articulo.oa?id=597770073007 https://www.redalyc.org/journal/5977/597770073007/ https://www.redalyc.org/journal/5977/597770073007/html/ https://www.redalyc.org/journal/5977/597770073007/597770073007.epub https://www.redalyc.org/journal/5977/597770073007/movil 10.7440/res64.2018.03 en http://www.redalyc.org/revista.oa?id=5977 História da Historiografia: International Journal of Theory and History of Historiography application/pdf Sociedade Brasileira de Teoria e História da Historiografia História da Historiografia: International Journal of Theory and History of Historiography (Brasil) Num.36 Vol.14
