El tema a tratar, la relación entre el discurso historiográfico y la realidad, por una parte, y la nueva novela histórica y la ficción, por otra, tiene tanto en la literatura como en las ciencias literarias y culturales un carácter tópico. Diversos autores, desde Aristóteles, Cervantes y Diderot hasta Balzac y Flaubert, Borges, Robbe-Grillet y Calvino se han ocupado reiteradamente con el, al parecer, siempre actualísimo fenómeno de la relación entre ficción y realidad.:Introducción al problema. - Las tesis principales de la "nueva historiografía" y "metahistoriografía". - La reelaboración de la historia: historia como construcción semióticopragmática y estrategia de hibridización. - Resumen
