"Carrard's sensitive readings of the New History substantially refine our understanding of how a number of the Annalistes write. In the process, he makes them far more accessible--and interesting."--Poetics Today.

Review
"Philippe Carrard's Poetics of the New History is the kind of book that could have an important role in ending the turf battles between historians and literary critics concerned with problems related to the writing of history. In any case, this work should help clear up some of the most persistent misunderstandings... and serve to refocus and revitalize debates over the 'literary' -- that is, narratological, tropological, poetic or rhetorical -- dimension of history-writing, as well as the historical dimension of literary texts and critical strategies." -- David Carroll, CLIO
"Carrard's sensitive readings of the New History substantially refine our understanding of how a number of the Annalistes write. In the process, he makes them far more accessible -- and interesting -- to the literary community." -- Poetics Today
