Puzzles of the Past: An Introduction to Thinking about History
Autor Michael T. Isenbergen Limba Engleză Paperback – 31 dec 1984
Isenberg offers a compelling invitation to "greet the subject and call it fun" by delving into different cultures and by coming to grips with the many interpreters of the past. He leads the reader on a study of history that evokes a sense of culture transmitted directly, achieving an immediacy that allows the "historian" to march with Napoleon, hear Cicero orate, or see what the headsman's ax did to Charles I of England. Each person becomes a compound of both individual and collective history; the boundaries of past and present are forever blurred.
This intriguing work--presented with a vibrancy rare for such subjects--is especially geared to beginning or intermediate students of history and is also ideal for graduate-level courses in historiography or historical methodology. It will be an indispensable guide for anyone interested in historical study.
