Beschreibung
What came before 'postmodernism' in historical studies? By thinking through the assumptions, methods and cast of mind of English historians writing between about 1870 and 1970, Michael Bentley reveals the intellectual world of the modernists and offers the first full analysis of English historiography in this crucial period. Professor Bentley does not follow those who deride modernism as 'positivist' or 'empiricist' but instead shows how it set in train, at its best, brilliant new styles of investigation that transformed how historians understood the English past.
