Transepistemologies inherit the trans- connotation - meaning ‘beyond’ - from transmodernity, whose project is worldwide decolonialization. Their essence is to safeguard the epistemes buried by colonialization, hidden beneath the modernist-postmodernist-colonial project, their inclusions without prominence. They stem from transmethodical research, which is complex and transdisciplinary. In this article we analyze transepistemologies of knowledge that emerge in transmethodical inquiries. The transmethod of inquiry is comprehensive, ecosophical and diatopical hermeneutics. It is located within the inquiry entitled “Transepistemologies of knowledge and transcomplex transmethodologies”. We went through analytical, empirical and propositional moments in which the researcher is present with his/her feelings and thoughts as the essence of the transmethod. At the propositive moment, in non-definitive conclusions, profoundly inclusive transmethods seek to safeguard the thinking/feeling of de-elitizing, re-linking, un-linking disciplines by combining them, embracing knowledge that incites the diatopical and the legitimation of buried knowledge and its encounter with scientists. Knowledge is not disjoined in belonging to the buried, without any prominence. Empowering oneself in another way of building epistemologies, the transepistemological ones, being beyond the modernist-postmodernist-colonial methods, is an urgency and resistance in the ontoepistemological liberation of knowledge in planetary decoloniality.

Keywords : transepistemologies; knowledge-knowledge; ecosophy; diatopy; transmethods.
