What does it mean to be a social and cultural historian today? In
the wake of the 'cultural turn', and in an age of digital and
public history, what challenges and opportunities await historians
in the early 21st century? In this exciting new text, leading
historians reflect on key developments in their fields and argue
for a range of 'new directions' in social and cultural history.
Focusing on emerging areas of historical research such as the
history of the emotions and environmental history, New Directions
in Social and Cultural History is an invaluable guide to the
current and future state of the field. The book is divided into
three clear sections, each with an editorial introduction, and
covering key thematic areas: histories of the human, the material
world, and challenges and provocations. Each chapter in the
collection provides an introduction to the key and recent
developments in its specialist field, with their authors then
moving on to argue for what they see as particularly important
shifts and interventions in the theory and methodology and suggest
future developments. New Directions in Social and Cultural History
provides a comprehensive and insightful overview of this burgeoning
field which will be important reading for all students and scholars
of social and cultural history and historiography.
