For all of the recent debates over the methods and theoretical
underpinnings of the historical profession, scholars and laypeople
alike still frequently think of history in terms of storytelling.
Accordingly, historians and theorists have devoted much attention
to how historical narratives work, illuminating the ways they can
bind together events, shape an argument and lend support to
ideology. From ancient Greece to modern-day bestsellers, the
studies gathered here offer a wide-ranging analysis of the textual
strategies used by historians. They show how in spite of the
pursuit of truth and objectivity, the ways in which historians tell
their stories are inevitably conditioned by their discursive
contexts.
