An Analysis of Richard J. Evans's In Defence of History

Beschreibung

Postmodernist thinkers consider history to be not very far removed from a work of fiction, something dependent on historiansâ own interpretations of the past. Evans, however, argues that we can trust history and it is possible to be objective about what happened and what caused it to happen.
