Collections of essays surveying the historical discipline at the
end of the 1970s heralded the new approached being developed,
approaches that promised a rich diversity and cosmopolitan
pluralism in the face of the uncertainty of historical reality. The
essayists in this successor volume, surveying the work of the
1980s, finds that these new approaches have not brought
satisfactory results, and argues that traditional practices,
reassessed and properly understood, constitute the true scientific
grounding of the discipline. Objective reality is obtainable, the
historian's subjectivity can be understood rationally, historical
sources and causal strategies can be managed objectively. In brief,
a truthful account of the past is possible, but it must be both
objective and subjective.
