History and Future: Using Historical Thinking to Imagine the Future
ISBN: 9780739117538 / Angielski / Twarda / 190 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. Perhaps the most important histiographic innovation of the twentieth century was the application of the historical method to wider and more expansive areas of the past.

Historians have applied their method to a wider variety of subjects; regardless of the topic, historians...

Droysen and the Prussian School of History
ISBN: 9780813118840 / Angielski / Twarda / 256 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. The Prussian School of History first predicted and advocated, then celebrated and defended, the unification of Germany by Prussia. Experts in German historiography and the history of German liberalism have often complained about the lack of a book, in any language, that traces the origins and explains the ideas of this school of history. Here is that book. Robert Southard finds that, for the Prussian School, history had an agenda. These historians generally expected history to complete its main tasks in their own time and country. The outcome of their politics was, really, an "end of... The Prussian School of History first predicted and advocated, then celebrated and defended, the unification of Germany by Prussia.

In a lively challenge to mainstream history, Michael Parenti does battle with a number of mass-marketed historical myths.

And he demonstrates how historians are influenced by the professional and class environment in which they work. Pursuing themes ranging from antiquity to modern times, from the Inquisition and Joan of Arc to the anti-labor bias of present-day history books, History as Mystery demonstrates how past and present can inform each other and how...

Evaluating Evidence: A Positivist Approach to Reading Sources on Modern Japan

Evaluating Evidence is based on the grueling lessons learned by a senior scholar during three decades of tutoring by, and collaboration with, Japanese historians.

He argues forcefully in this volume for an inductive process in which the scholar seeks out facts on a subject and, through observation and examination of an...
