Este ensayo contribuye a la arqueología del concepto de transculturación, su empleo y su actualidad. Esa meta implica resumir los debates antropológicos entre los años treinta y cuarenta y analizar el uso del concepto “transculturación” –hasta ahora no señalado—en el pensamiento de Carlos Real de Azúa, mediado por el clasicista Gilbert Highet. Intento demostrar cómo se ha podido emplear transculturación y “aculturación” como sinónimos en determinados contextos humanísticos. Por último ensayaré las razones de la “desaparición” de la trayectoria de Fernando Ortiz, deudora de la lectura de Ángel Rama. La duda sobre el valor heurístico de la categoría transculturación, finalmente, es un medio eficaz para comprender algunos debates actuales entre antropología y estudios culturales.
