Description

Historical Theory offers a rigorous examination of how historians construct narratives about the past whilst confronting postmodern challenges to historical truth. Mary Fulbrook, a prominent historian, develops an original argument that navigates between the limitations of fact-only approaches and postmodern relativism, demonstrating that historical accounts are neither pure fiction nor objective records. The book evaluates diverse methodological approaches to history and argues that all historians must engage with fundamental theoretical questions to produce meaningful scholarship. Rather than dismissing historical narratives as mere invention, Fulbrook charts a constructive path forward that acknowledges the complexity of historical interpretation without surrendering the discipline's capacity to say something true about the past. Essential reading for historians, students, and anyone seeking to understand how we know what we know about history.
