Description

Explore the fundamental principles of historical methodology with this classic treatise from the Routledge Library Editions: Historiography. Originally published in 1950, this work presents a liberal conception of history that welcomes all narrators of past events into the scholarly conversation. This text defines history as the accurate story required to preserve the memory of past human experiences. By examining how the function of history determines its specific method, the author addresses the fundamental question of how secure our knowledge of the past truly is. Readers will find a deep investigation into the empirical nature of history, where results are viewed as forever provisional. The book provides a thorough examination of the merits of dogmatism versus skepticism, offering several interpretations that remain relevant for students and scholars of historical study and educational resources.
