This volume gathers Professor Burke's most important essays on the
theory and the practice of history. In the first part, the main
theme is the way in which concepts borrowed from social and
cultural theory may encourage historians to ask new questions about
the past or help them to answer old ones. The second part of the
author's work is to illustrate some major new trends in historical
practice: the use of images as evidence, for instance, the interest
in different attitudes to time, and the increasing awareness of the
relation, close or distant, between historians and the past that
they study.
