 abstract={In this article, I propose an exercise in cultural reflexivity concerning the definition by methodologies of history of their object of cognition and the place of non‑academic history within it. The subject of cultural reflexivity is the assumption of cultural obviousness – common sense. In defining its object of cognition, the methodology of history does not include non‑academic history. However, it remains in the sphere of its practical interests. The positioning of non- ‑academic history outside the definition of the object of research of the methodology of history is determined by the positioning of academic historiography in relation to non‑academic historiography within the framework of thinking about them as products of culture. The methodology of history, indicating the cultural character of scientific historiography, at the same time does not treat it as a case among cases – one of the "rational local systems". The universalization of the indigenous cosmology of the West means that outside its definition there are forms of history based on different criteria of certainty and indisputability and of a fundamentally different nature than textual and event‑based. Following the critical expansion of the subject matter of historical methodology research, the task of historical methodology would be the cultural description of various forms of history, including the criteria of accuracy or fidelity to which members of the culture being studied resort in establishing the relationship of the past to the present.},
