      ab: This article seeks to address what the work of Catherine Malabou can offer to the thinking and understanding of history. Characterizing Malabou's intellectual project as a meditation on the relation between history and possible knowledge, it situates the philosopher's work in the tradition of historical epistemology. It will be argued that, in its engagement with philosophical and (neuro)biological theories of plasticity and epigenesis, the historical constitution of Malabou's philosophical system problematizes the practical and ontological difficulty behind any commitment to a historically bounded knowledge of what here will be called, following Heidegger and Foucault, 'pure finitude'. The article concludes by suggesting that, if placed alongside the work of intellectual historian Quentin Skinner, Malabou's historical epistemology makes a decisive and useful contribution to contemporary debates regarding historical method by underscoring the (neuro)biological rooting of persistent epistemic gaps between historical understanding and experience.
