Sommario/riassunto |
|
A broad perspective on historical thought and writing, with a new epilogue. |
"In this book, now published in 10 languages, a preeminent intellectual historian examines the profound changes in ideas about the nature of history and historiography. Georg G. Iggers traces the basic assumptions upon which historical research and writing have been based, and describes how the newly emerging social sciences transformed historiography following World War II."-- |
