Description and Table of Contents
Description
Granta's 'History' is devoted to history of the most old-fashioned kind: historia in its original Greek sense. A chronicle of events with a beginning, a middle and an end.
'History' is also about how we make these chronicles. How we manipulate facts. How we exploit and shape and bend memory. How we make up stories to make sense of our past.
