Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: L’histoire : une discipline universelle ? On pourrait être tenté de le penser en observant la manière dont le métier d’historien s’exerce de nos jours dans le monde entier. Pourtant, lorsque les historiens d’Afrique, d’Amérique ou d’Asie se plient aujourd’hui aux exigences de la « science de l’histoire » élaborée par l’Occident moderne, leurs visions, leurs préoccupations et leurs savoir-faire restent comme chez leurs confrères occidentaux marqués par leur culture, leur histoire et les conditions sociopolitiques spécifiques de leur environnement. Les particularismes historiographiques sont encore plus nets dans les récits du passé qui ont été élaborés et transmis par leurs prédécesseurs, avant le processus d’occidentalisation de la période contemporaine. Pendant des siècles, voire des millénaires, les civilisations non occidentales ont en effet produit des discours et des savoirs originaux sur le passé, souvent avec une profondeur et une finesse remarquables. Ce sont toutes ces historiographies d’ailleurs, anciennes ou actuelles, modernes ou traditionnelles, qui sont l’objet de cet ouvrage collectif qui vise à faire progresser en France la réflexion sur l’histoire mondiale de l’histoire.

Download or read book A Companion to Enlightenment Historiography written by and published by BRILL. This book was released on 2013-06-28 with total page 519 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A Companion to Enlightenment Historiography provides a survey of the most important historians and historiographical debates in the long eighteenth century, examining these debates’ stylistic, philosophical and political significance. The chapters, many of which were specially commissioned for this volume, offer a mixture of accessible introduction and original interpretive argument; they will thus appeal both to the scholar of the period and the more general reader. Part I considers Gibbon, Hume, Robertson, Montesquieu, Voltaire, Herder and Vico. Part II explores wider themes of national and thematic context: English, Scottish, French and German Enlightenment historians are discussed, as are the concepts of historical progress, secularism, the origins of historicism and the deployments of Greek and Roman antiquity within 18th century historiography. Contributors are Robert Mankin, Simon Kow, Jeffrey Smitten, Rebecca Kingston, Síofra Pierse, Bertrand Binoche, Donald Phillip Verene, Ulrich Muhlack, David Allan, Noelle Gallagher, François-Emmanuël Boucher, Sandra Rudnick Luft, Sophie Bourgault, C. Akça Ataç, and Robert Sparling.

Download or read book Barbarians Maps and Historiography written by Walter Goffart and published by Taylor & Francis. This book was released on 2023-05-31 with total page 355 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: To complement his first collection of articles (Rome's Fall and After, 1989), Walter Goffart presents here a further set of essays, all but two published between 1988 and 2007. They mainly focus on two types of historiography: early medieval narratives, with special attention to Bede's Historia ecclesiastica; and printed maps designed to portray and teach history, with special attention to the ubiquitous 'map of the barbarian invasions'. The wide-ranging concerns represented extend from the underside of the Life of St Severinus of Noricum, and further evidence for dating Beowulf, to the questions whether the barbarian invasions period was a 'heroic age' and how Charlemagne shaped his own succession. Attention is also paid to the earliest map illustrating the Anglo-Saxon Heptarchy and to the historical vignettes of the Vatican Galleria delle carte geografiche. The collection opens with the appraisal of certain writings dealing with what is now called 'ethnogenesis theory'. To conclude, Professor Goffart adds brief second thoughts about each of these essays and supplies an annotated list of his articles that have not been reprinted.
