About The Book:
Key Issues in Historical Theory offers a fresh and accessible introduction to the dynamic field of historical theory. Drawing from various examples in novels, paintings, music, and political debates, Herman Paul expertly engages readers in discussions on what history is, how we relate to the past, and how the past shapes us.
The book is structured around 11 thematic chapters that explore subjects such as:
-
History, memory, and trauma
-
Historical experience and narrative
-
The moral and political dimensions of history
-
Historical reasoning and explanation
-
Truth, plausibility, and objectivity
This comprehensive guide demonstrates that historical theory extends beyond professional historical studies and is a powerful tool for understanding autobiographical writing, cultural heritage, and political debates about the past.
The text is designed to be accessible and engaging, with additional focus on key topics provided through textboxes. Key Issues in Historical Theory is a highly recommended read for undergraduate students of history, Masters and PhD students, and professional historians interested in theoretical perspectives on history.
