transtemporal

"Transnational history is all the rage. Transtemporal history has yet to come into vogue." (Guldi and Armitage 2014 15)

preposterous history -- ""In alignment with intercultural relationality, we could call it intertemporal . Such a term reminds us of the thick mutuality of relation, as opposed to a lean linearity of progress." (Bal 2008 152)
