This book provides an accessible introduction to a wide range of
concerns that have preoccupied historians over time. Global in
scope, it explores historical perspectives not only from
historiography itself, but from related areas such as literature,
sociology, geography and anthropology which have entered into
productive dialogues with history. Clearly written and accessible,
this third edition is fully revised with an updated structure and
new areas of historical enquiry and themes added, including the
history of emotions, video history and global pandemics. In all of
this, the authors have attempted to think beyond the boundaries of
the West and consider varied approaches to history. They do so by
engaging with theoretical perspectives and methodologies that have
provided the foundation for good historical practice. The authors
analyse how historians can improve their skills by learning about
the discipline of historiography, that is, how historians go about
the task of exploring the past and determining where the line
separating history from other disciplines, such as sociology or
geography, runs. History: An Introduction to Theory and Method 3ed
is an essential resource for students of historical theory and
method working at both an introductory and more advanced level.
