Autor

Frank Wilson Blackmar (1854-1931) was an eminent American sociologist, historian, and educator, principally remembered for his comprehensive work in the field of sociology. Born in Springfield, Pennsylvania, Blackmar earned his BA degree at the University of the State of Kansas in 1889 and later obtained his MA and Ph.D. at Johns Hopkins University. He went on to become a professor and later the head of the Department of History and Sociology at the University of Kansas, where he also served as the director of the Summer Session. Blackmar's contributions to academia notably include the establishment of the Kansas State Historical Society. Among his numerous scholarly works, the 'History of Human Society' stands out as a significant contribution that encapsulates his visionary understanding of social evolution and structure. His literary style reflects the didactic and authoritative tone typical of early sociological texts, paving the way for future sociological discourse. He adeptly combined empirical detail with theoretical analysis throughout his career, influencing the methodological approach in sociological research and contributing to its development as a distinct academic discipline (Blackmar, F.W. (1898). 'History of Human Society'). Blackmar's legacy in the social sciences endures through his writings, educational reforms, and dedication to institutional development.
