Over 11 thematically-based chapters, Herman Paul discusses subjects such as:
history, memory and trauma
historical experience and narrative
moral and political dimensions of history
historical reasoning and explanation
truth, plausibility and objectivity.
Key Issues in Historical Theory convincingly shows that historical theory is not limited to reflection on professional historical studies, but offers valuable tools for understanding autobiographical writing, cultural heritage and political controversies about the past.
With textboxes providing additional focus on a range of key topics, this is an attractive, accessible and up-to-date guide to the field of historical theory.
