Doing History bridges the gap between the way history is studied in
school or as represented in the media and the way it is studied at
university level. History as an academic discipline has
dramatically changed in recent decades and has been enhanced by
ideas from other disciplines, the influence of postmodernism and
historians' incorporation of their own reflections into their work.
Doing History presents the ideas and debates that shape how we 'do'
history today, covering arguments about the nature of historical
knowledge and the function of historical writing, whether we can
ever really know what happened in the past, what sources historians
depend on, and the relative value of popular and academic
histories. This revised edition includes new chapters on public
history and activist histories. It looks at global representations
of the past across the centuries, and provides up-to-date
suggestions for further reading, presenting the reader with a
thorough and current introduction to studying history at an
academic level as well as a pathway to progress this study further.
Clearly structured and accessibly written, it is an essential
volume for all students embarking on the study of history.
