L’histoire de la philosophie appartient-elle au champ des sciences humaines et sociales?

Abstract: This paper addresses the epistemic status of the history of philosophy through case studies of a few works produced in the field of ancient and medieval philosophy. The discipline embodies the tension between, on the one hand, philosophy, a science that seeks a high level of generalization and avoids social contextualization, and, on the other hand, history, whose epistemology is contextualist by definition. History of philosophy is thus an area particularly conducive for investigating the conditions and issues of contextualization in the social sciences and humanities, which, from the 19th century onward, have been defined as historical disciplines to distinguish them from the natural sciences
