A global history of historical writing, thought and the development
of the historical discipline from the ancient world to the present.
This is a definitive guide to human efforts to recover, understand
and represent the past, bringing together different historical
traditions and their social, economic, political and cultural
contexts. Daniel Woolf offers clear definitions of different genres
and forms of history and addresses key themes such as the
interactions between West and East, the conflict of oral,
pictographic, and written accounts of the past and the place of
history in society and in politics. Numerous textual extracts and
illustrations in every chapter capture the historical cultures of
past civilizations and demonstrate the different forms that
historical consciousness has taken around the world. The book
offers unique insights into the interconnections between different
historical cultures over 3000 years and relates the rise of history
to key themes in world history.
