Abstract

In history research the study of the life of an individual can be conducted in multiple
ways, but the biographical method stands out among available paths. However, in this article we
seek to reflect on the approach of microanalytical research, highlighting the aspects that are
involved in one of the objects of study of the microhistorian: trajectory. Our concern is to
discover in what way microhistory is an appropriate alternative for investigating individuals’
trajectories, in order to understand the approach as an analytical instrument applicable to the
historical study of a given reality. It is also our goal to expose microhistory’s approaches and the
theoretical and methodological challenges that surround it.
