Description

Explore how universal history shaped our understanding of the global world from the late Middle Ages through the early nineteenth century. This volume examines the intellectual foundations of universal history as a response to the epistemological crisis created by unprecedented knowledge and cross-cultural experiences during the early modern period. When traditional narratives proved insufficient for understanding complex historical events, thinkers developed new frameworks for integrating diverse perspectives. Drawing on recent theoretical advances in the history of discipline, the book analyses the varied and largely experimental attempts to reconcile historical thinking with universal principles. Rather than presenting universal history as a finished success, it reveals the laboratory of intense intellectual struggle that characterises this ambitious historical project, offering modern readers insight into how past scholars grappled with questions of global connection and meaning-making.

Key Features

The 24th volume in the Routledge Approaches to History series provides scholarly analysis of universal history's development and philosophical significance.

Traces the epistemological challenges that prompted early modern scholars to develop universal history beyond traditional narrative frameworks.

Examines diverse intellectual attempts at synthesising historical thinking with universal principles from the late Middle Ages onwards.

Published by Routledge, a leading academic publisher specialising in history, theory, and humanities research.

Offers contemporary theoretical perspectives on how universal history continues to inform global historical understanding.
