Resumo:What makes the historian when `makes history'?. In proposing this question Certeau concluded that the historian generate with his practice a product that has the presence of an artistic dimension, that promotes an action of the content through the form, consolidating the practice into a historic text. By proposing a creative role in the historian's practice, associated with a method of documentary research, the author shows history as a mixture of science and art. The purpose of this article is therefore to understand how these debates between history and fiction have been used in the production of some historians. Undeniably there was a contribution towards making all historians aware of the poetics of history, however, the status of sources still be maintained, the document should continue to play a key role in historiography, and that all historian in the process of to creating his interpretation, must be committed to the "reality principle."
