    Book SynopsisThis volume brings together a collection of recent essays on the philosophy and theory of history.This is a field of lively interdisciplinary discussion and research, to which historians, philosophers and theorists of culture and literature have contributed. The author is a philosopher by training, and his inspiration comes primarily from the continental-phenomenological tradition. Thus the influence of Husserl, Heidegger, Merleau-Ponty and Ricoeur can be discerned here. This background opens up a unique perspective on the issues under discussion. Phenomenology differs from other philosophical approaches, like metaphysics and epistemology. Phenomenology asks, of anything that exists or may exist: how is it given, how does it enter our experience, what is our experience of it like? Very broadly we can say: phenomenology is about experience. At first glance, this approach may seem ill-suited to history. In our language, history usually means either 1) what happened, i.e. past eTable of ContentsIntroduction 1PART 1Historicity, narrative, and time 91 On historicity 112 Reflections on temporal perspective: the use and abuse of hindsight 243 The stories of our lives: aging and narrative 344 On being historical 46PART 2Teleology and history 595 Teleology and the experience of history 616 Husserl and Foucault on the historical a priori: teleological and anti-teleological views of history 757 Historical teleology: the grand illusion? 868 On the metaphilosophy of history 97PART 3Embodiment and experience 1139 Intersubjectivity and embodiment 11510 History as orientation: Rüsen on historical culture and narration 12811 Erlebnis and history 14412 Experience and history 153

    15 in stock

    Book SynopsisPractising historians claim that their accounts of the past are something other than fiction, myth or propaganda. Yet there are significant challenges to this view, most notably from postmodernism. In Historical Theory, a prominent historian develops a highly original argument that evaluates the diversity of approaches to history and points to a constructive way forward.Mary Fulbrook argues that all historians face key theoretical questions, and that an emphasis on the facts alone is not enough. Against postmodernism, she argures that historical narratives are not simply inventions imposed on the past, and that some answers to historical questions are more plausible or adequate than others. Illustrated with numerous substantive examples and its focus is always on the most central theoretical issues and on real strategies for bridging the gap between the traces of the past and the interpretations of the present. Historical Theory is essential and enlightening reading for all historians and their students.Trade Review'Fulbrook's undogmatic approach certainly merits a close reading. The book soundly explores some of the main topics andproblems of historical analyses ... her comprehensive book is a sound and useful overview, even for students, who seek for a basic understanding of some of the major issues of historical theory.' - H'Mary Fulbrook's Historical Theory is a... thought-provoking intervention...' - Journal of Contemporary History, Vol. 40, No. 1'Fulbrook's undogmatic approach certainly merits a close reading.

    Book SynopsisIn this original study of witchcraft, Gibson explores the stories told by and about witches and their 'victims' through trial records, early news books, pamphlets and fascinating personal accounts. The author discusses the issues surrounding the interpretation of original historical sources and demonstrates that their representations of witchcraft are far from straight forward or reliable. Innovative and thought-provoking, this book sheds new light on early modern people's responses to witches and on the sometimes bizarre flexibility of the human imagination.Table of ContentsIntroduction; Part 1 Records; Chapter 1 Ghost-writers—dialogue, interrogation and the production of the records of witchcraft; Chapter 2 Witchcraft trials and a methodology for reading them; Chapter 3 Deconstructing generic stories; Part 2 Pamphlets; Chapter 4 ‘Necessary’ and ‘triviall’ pamphlets; Chapter 5 Prefaces; Chapter 6 An Open Conclusion, or ‘Where do we go from here?’;
