This anthology of new essays by an international group of
preeminent scholars explores the ground-breaking work of Hayden
White, whose thought, beginning with his seminal Metahistory
(1973), has revolutionized the way we think about the philosophy of
history, historiography, narrative, and the relation between
history and literature. Representing a variety of disciplines and
approaches, the contributions to this volume testify to the
far-reaching effects and significance of White's philosophy of
history. Individual essays relate White's ideas to contemporary
art, cognitive studies, Heideggerian hermeneutics, experimental
history, Kant's transcendental philosophy, analytic philosophy of
history, Marxist cultural theory, the Kantian sublime, and American
academic historiography. A substantial introduction by the editor
traces the genesis of White's philosophy of history, situating it
with respect to both the Anglo-American and Continental traditions.
The volume also features a previously unpublished essay by White,
which offers a concise overview of his later thought, and a
"Comment" written specifically for this volume, in which White
revisits the question of the philosophy of history.
