To answer questions such as these, Ernst Breisach provides the first comprehensive overview of postmodernism and its complex relationship to history and historiography. Placing postmodern theories in their intellectual and historical contexts, he shows how they are part of broad developments in Western culture. Breisach sees postmodernism as neither just a fad nor a universal remedy. In clear and concise language, he presents and critically evaluates the major views on history held by influential postmodernists, such as Derrida, Foucault, Lyotard, and the new narrativists. Along the way, he introduces to the reader major debates among historians over postmodern theories of evidence, objectivity, meaning and order, truth, and the usefulness of history. He also discusses new types of history that have emerged as a consequence of postmodernism, including cultural history, microhistory, and new historicism. For anyone concerned with the postmodern challenge to history, both advocates and critics alike, On the Future of History will be a welcome guide. 606 $aPostmodernism$xSocial aspects 606 $aHistoriography 610 $ahistorical, past, present, postmodernist, postmodern, difficulties, challenges, aftermath, writing, postmodernity, questions, answers, academic, scholarly, overview, comprehensive, relationship, historiography, theory, theoretical, western, culture, cultural, evaluation, evidence, historian, social studies, terms, issues, stability, era, 20th century, anthropological, poststructuralist, movement. 615 0$aPostmodernism$xSocial aspects. 615 0$aHistoriography. 676 $a306 700 $aBreisach$b Ernst$4aut$4http://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/aut$0124268 801 0$bDE-B1597 801 1$bDE-B1597 906 $aBOOK 912 $a996248051603316 996 $aOn the Future of History$92346298 997 $aUNISA
