"In this period of rapid and unpredictable globalisation, this new edition enables historical insights and perspective that the usual national or language-based surveys just cannot provide. This is the only truly global history of historical writing, from the eighteenth century onward, and it is an essential source for teaching and research. Once again, Georg Iggers and his colleagues have balanced their breadth of knowledge with a lucid style that is a pleasure to read and a reliable source to cite."
Adam Budd, University of Edinburgh, UK
The first book on historiography to adopt a global and comparative perspective on the topic, A Global History of Modern Historiography looks not just at developments in the West but also at the other great historiographical traditions in Asia, the Middle East, and elsewhere around the world over the course of the past two and a half centuries.
This second edition contains fully updated sections on Latin American and African historiography, discussion of the development of global history, environmental history, and feminist and gender history in recent years, and new coverage of Russian historical practices. Beginning in the mid-eighteenth century, the authors analyse historical currents in a changing political, social and cultural context, examining both the adaptation and modification of the Western influence on historiography and how societies outside Europe and America found their own ways in the face of modernization and globalization.
Supported by online resources including a selection of excerpts from key historiographical texts, this book offers an up-to-date account of the status of historical writing in the global era and is essential reading for all students of modern historiography.
