内容説明

Looking first at the processes which have "professionalized" history and at the relations between what is coming to be called public history (museums, the heritage industry and the mass media) and academic history, Jordanova considers areas that she believes are of particular importance. The text examines the way historians have "divided up" their subject, and how that has changed and with what effects. Why have certain fields, such as women's history and black history, generated such intense debates about their value and validity? History has frequently been seen as something of a jackdaw subject, with a tendency to appropriate theories and concepts from other areas. Is that assumption justified? What is the nature of the links with adjacent fields, such as anthropology and literary theory? What is the status of historical knowledge? Is it in some sense objective or should we agree with those who are dismissive of such claims? Jordanova refuses to mystify what historians do and treats historical methods critically; she also resists the separation of theory from practice and finishes with a personal view of where the discipline is going, indicating the challenges it faces and why its future is significant.

内容説明

The study of history has changed dramatically in recent decades. The swiftness and scale of the shift is indisputable, but its precise nature as well as its implications remain hotly contested. This study by one of the liveliest and most acute practitioners in the field, has a refreshing transparency, a determination to demystify what historians do. It looks at history as an academic discipline but also engages with the use of historical ideas in the wider world. This new edition makes this ground-breaking work more accessible and more universal. Taking into account recent world events (9/11 and the War in Iraq), she has included a new chapter on the relationships between religious, ethnic, and political identities, the history of international diplomacy, and how the world map gets reconfigured.
