At a time when rapidly evolving technologies, political turmoil,
and the tensions inherent in multiculturalism and globalization are
reshaping historical consciousness, what is the proper role for
historians and their work? By way of an answer, the contributors to
this volume offer up an illuminating collective meditation on the
idea of ethos and its relevance for historical practice. These
intellectually adventurous essays demonstrate how ethos-a term
evoking a society's "fundamental character" as well as an ethical
appeal to knowledge and commitment-can serve as a conceptual
lodestar for history today, not only as a narrative, but as a form
of consciousness and an ethical-political orientation.
