Taylor & Francis Historical Theory Ways of Imagining the Past
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.

Taylor & Francis Ltd (Sales) Reading Witchcraft Stories of Early English Witches
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?’;

Taylor & Francis Ltd The Field
Book Synopsis2006 North American Society for Sports History Book of the YearThe literature on sport history is now well established, taking in a wide range of themes and covering every activity from aerobics to zorbing. However, in comparison to most mainstream histories, sport history has rarely been called upon to question its foundations and account for the basis of its historical knowledge. In this book, Booth offers a rigorous assessment of sport history as an academic discipline, exploring the ways in which professional historians can gather materials, construct and examine evidence, and present their arguments about the sporting past. Part 1 examines theories of knowledge, while Part 2 goes on to scrutinize the uses of historical knowledge in popular and academic studies of sport history. With clear structure, examples, summary tables and a detailed glossary, The Field provides students, teachers and researchers with an unparalleledTable of ContentsPrologue: An Introduction to Sport Historiography.
