Summary, etc | A follow-up to the bestselling The Pursuit of History, this Reader brings together the reflections of a number of major historians on the nature and purpose of their craft.<br/><br/>They illuminate the different governing assumptions - political, social, personal - that have sustained these leading practitioners in their studies, and show how different influences and methodologies have impacted on them.<br/><br/>In so doing, the book not only gives an insight into the great variety of aspirations and convictions that animate History as a discipline, but also brings into focus the key historiographic trends of the English-speaking world since World War II. Key themes which are highlighted include:<br/><br/>The nation<br/>Marxism<br/>People's history<br/>Structural history<br/>Gender<br/>Race<br/>Quantitative history<br/><br/>Ranging widely from the earlier traditions and schools to the wake of postmodernism, authors represented include Braudel, Carr, Elton, Himmelfarb, Hobsbawm, Scott and Zeldin.<br/><br/>This Reader provides the core reading for all History and Theory courses. |
