transhistorical

transhistorical
Outside the bounds of history; universal; permanent.

An assumption made in much translation pedagogy is that... students are always and everywhere the same. In other words, the student is an invariant, transhistorical subject who is, to all intents and purposes, indistinguishable from his or her counterpart in the seventeenth, eighteenth or nineteenth century.
