Sinopsis
Excerpt from The Metaphysics of Historical Knowledge
Our procedure will be briefly as follows. We shall begin with an elementary analysis of the knowledge of the past. This will lend to certain difficulties, on the one hand epistemological, on the other hand metaphysical. After a solution of the former, the consideration of the latter will involve a discussion of the nature of time. This will occupy a large part of our space, and unavoidably somewhat interrupt our progress. Lastly, however, the epistemological enquiry will be resumed, and followed into its ultimate issues.

Excerpt from The Metaphysics of Historical Knowledge
In the case of knowledge derived from most se-called history, one is even further removed from the original experiences de scribed. To be sure, such knowledge has its ultimate source in the reports of eye-witnesses. But it does not reach us unalloyed. It comes reinterpreted, remoulded by the private thoughts of the historian. And however accurate the story may be, I no more relive those experiences than I behold my friend in the photograph.

Calificación del vendedor: 4 de 5 estrellas
Paperback. Condición: New. Print on Demand. This book delves into the nature of historical knowledge, investigating the relationship between time, memory, and representation. The author argues that historical knowledge is a unique blend of presentative and representative elements, with memory playing a crucial role in bridging the gap between past and present. The book's exploration of time is particularly insightful. It examines the temporal experience, delving into the concepts of past, present, and future, and their relationship to change. The author challenges traditional notions of time, arguing that the past is not merely a static record but a dynamic and evolving realm that exists in a different way than the present. Through an examination of historical knowledge, the book sheds light on the nature of reality and the relationship between the knower and the known. It offers a nuanced understanding of the complexities of historical representation and the challenges of understanding the past through the lens of the present. This book is a reproduction of an important historical work, digitally reconstructed using state-of-the-art technology to preserve the original format. In rare cases, an imperfection in the original, such as a blemish or missing page, may be replicated in the book. print-on-demand item. Nº de ref. del artículo: 9781333468262_0
