What is the point of history? Why has the study of the past been so important for so long? Why History? A History contemplates two and a half thousand years of historianship to establish how very different thinkers in diverse contexts have conceived their activities, and to illustrate the purposes that their historical investigations have served. Whether considering Herodotus, medieval religious exegesis, or twentieth-century cultural history, at the core of this work is the way that the present has been conceived to relate to the past. Alongside many changes in technique and philosophy, Donald Bloxham's book reveals striking long-term continuities in justifications for the discipline.

Does history matter? Is it anything more than entertainment? And if so, what practical relevance does it have? In this fully revised second edition of a seminal text, John Tosh persuasively argues that history is central to an informed and critical understanding of topical issues in the present. Including a range of contemporary examples from Brexit to child sexual abuse to the impact of the internet, this is an important and practical introduction for all students of history. Inspiring and empowering, this book provides both students and general readers with a stimulating and practical rationale for the study of history. It is essential reading for all undergraduate students of history who require an engaging introduction to the subject. New to this Edition: - Illustrative examples and case studies are fully updated - Features a postscript on British historians and Brexit - Bibliography is heavily revised

Why History is an introduction to the issue of history and ethics. Designed to provoke discussion, the book asks whether a good knowledge and understanding of the past is a good thing to have and if so, why. In the context of postmodern times, Why History suggests that the goal of 'learning lessons from the past' is actually learning lessons from stories written by historians and others. If the past as history has no foundation, can anything ethical be gained from history? Why History presents liberating challenges to history and ethics, proposing that we have reached an emancipatory moment which is well beyond the 'end of history'.

Sinn und Zweck der Geschichte werden immer wieder neu hinterfragt, weil sich Gesellschaften ständig neu verorten. Davon ist der Geschichtsunterricht direkt betroffen: "Warum Geschichtsunterricht?" Autor*innen aus 18 Ländern und vier Kontinenten fragen daher nach der Bedeutung des Geschichtsunterrichts aus unterschiedlichen Perspektiven: mit theoretischen Überlegungen und Modellen, mit Bezügen aus der Unterrichtspraxis und Erkenntnissen aus der Forschung. Die Publikation präsentiert eine ganze Reihe von Gründen, warum Geschichte heute unbedingt unterrichtet werden muss. Sie liest sich als Plädoyer für einen kompetenten Umgang mit Geschichte in heutigen Gesellschaften.

The author aims to show, through a series of case studies of Derrida and others, that postmodern ways of thinking signal the end of history - 'history' especially when taken in either of two forms: the metanarrative on the one hand, and the professional, academic form on the other. -- introd.

The Past as Liberation from History explores the difference between the social construction we call history and the lived experience we call the past, arguing that by failing to distinguish between the two, we risk unquestionably accepting as authoritative accounts of the past in which we have no voice. It shows that identities rooted in the richness and variety of the past, even when the history is painful, serve the purpose of drawing us closer to one another as we seek to realize our shared dreams of life, liberty, and the pursuit of happiness. By placing in counterpoint broader educational concerns with the teaching experiences of the author, the study also explores this individual's testimony as a teacher seeking to make relevant for his students the examination of the past.
