Paperback. Condition: new. Paperback. Today, many readers could easily list thirty classic authors, or thirty classic works of art, literature, music, philosophy, or science. But would they be able to name thirty classic works of history? In spite of history's outsized influence in the world of ideas, the books that made - and-remade - the history we know so well are often forgotten. In this panoramic book, distinguished historian Jaume Aurell sets out to introduce readers to a new canon of historical writing. Taking a global approach, he places the work of Herodotus, Thucydides, Gibbon, Michelet and Braudel alongside masterpieces from a myriad of periods and civilizations, from Sima Qian, Anna Komnene, al-Masudi and Fukuzawa Yukichi to Edmundo O'Gorman, C. L. R. James and Natalie Zemon Davis. At the same time, Aurell argues that we should not see these books as a definitive canon - instead, any canon should be seen as a list-in-progress to be contested and debated anew with each generation. It is only by being exposed to these diverse and deeply significant works that we can fully perceive the shape of the discipline, and carve out a new appreciation for the art of history writing. Shipping may be from multiple locations in the US or from the UK, depending on stock availability.

Paperback. Condition: New. Genealogies of the West presents a new look at the West by tracing the still-recognizable footprints of the past and reflecting on the present challenges it faces. Through a review of its rich and often controversial history, it recalls the genealogies of the plural processes, ideas, characters, and events that structure the West's tradition and identity, and their presence nowadays. It shows the faces of the Modernity and its most relevant achievements-such as the state, capitalism, science, technology, ideologies, and enlightenments-and how they are being revised nowadays by postmodernity. This helps readers gain perspective, gives clues for understanding the complexities of the past, challenges some pre-assumed historical inaccuracies, identifies its weight and presence in the present, and projects these thoughts toward the future.

Paperback. Condition: New. This Element analyses the autobiographies of historians from a global perspective and looks at all eras, from antiquity to the present day. It includes twenty autobiographies: Caesar's and Lucian of Samosata's memories in antiquity; an autobiography of a medieval king such as Peter IV of Aragon; Vico's, Gibbon's and Adams' intellectual self-accounting in modernity; autobiographical revelations and social activism of twentieth century women historians such as Carolyn Steedman, Jill Conway and Gerda Lerner; classical Chinese and Islamic traditions through the autobiographies of Sima Quian and Ibn Khaldun; the perplexities inherent in the modernisation of Japan (Fukuzawa Yukichi), China (Gu Jiegang), India (Nirad Chaudhuri) and Egypt (Taha Hussein); postmodernists such as Rosenstone; and traumatic postcolonial experiences in Africa (Bethwell Ogot), Latin America (Carlos Eire) and Southeast Asia (Wang Gungwu). This Element proposes a literary and historical approach to these autobiographies, emphasising its historiographical dimension and value.

Condition: New. Idioma/Language: Español. «La historiografía medieval, entre la historia y la literatura» es un repaso apasionante de los contenidos y las formas que adoptó la escritura de la historia en la Edad Media. En la primera parte del libro se repasan los principales géneros históricos practicados por los historiadores medievales: los anales, las genealogías, las autobiografías y las crónicas. En la segunda parte se realiza un sugerente paralelismo entre los problemas teóricos y epistemológicos que se presentan tanto a los cronistas medievales como a los historiadores contemporáneos. El libro se completa con dos capítulos dedicados al análisis de las últimas tendencias de la interpretación de los textos históricos (como el nuevo medievalismo, la nueva filología, el nuevo historicismo o el postmodernismo) que, al fin y al cabo, son las nuevas tendencias de la historiografía globalmente considerada. *** Nota: Los envíos a España peninsular, Baleares y Canarias se realizan a través de mensajería urgente.
