How do Documents Become Sources? Perspectives from Asia and Science
Florence Bretelle-Establet From Documents to Sources in
Historiography The present volume develops a specific type of
critical analysis of the written documents that have become
historians' sources. For reasons that will be explained later, the
history of science in Asia has been taken as a framework. However,
the issue addressed is general in scope. It emerged from
reflections on a problem that may seem common to historians: why,
among the huge mass of written documents available to historians,
some have been well studied while others have been dismissed or
ignored? The question of historical sources and their (unequal) use
in historiography is not new. Which documents have been used and
favored as historical sources by historians has been a key
historiographical issue that has occupied a large space in the
historical production of the last four decades, in France at least.
