27A remarkable amount of the most innovative, significant, and lasting historical writing of the twentieth century has been produced in France, much of it the work of a group of historians associated with the journal Annales. Founded in 1929, Annales promoted a new kind of history based on three central aims: to substitute a problem-orientated analytical history for a traditional narrative of events; to embrace the history of the whole range of human activities rather than concentrate on political…Read more

Do historians discover or invent, construct or reconstruct the objects they study? The discussion has been particularly lively in France and in the USA, and it is therefore appropriate that a group of distinguished historians from Britain should now engage with this subject. These ten essays present a historical and critical overview of British historical thought and writing sin…Read more

Following this, I shall devote the remainder of the article to a sketch for a future project on the history of knowledge

16Renaissance and Revolution (review)Philosophical Studies (Dublin) 17 (n/a): 310-311. 1968.Professor Mazzeo’s declared aim has been to write a general introduction to ‘the revolutionary shifts in thought, taste or perception’ which occurred in Europe between the 14th century and the 17th. In order to avoid too abstract a treatment, he approaches his subject through four men who are ‘magisterial and comprehensive as well as somehow typical’. They are Machiavelli, Castiglione, Bacon and Hobbes. There is an introductory chapter on humanism, and a concluding one on the idea of progress.

2Renaissance and Revolution (review)Philosophical Studies (Dublin) 17 (n/a): 310-311. 1968.Norm and Form contains eleven essays, written over a period of about twenty years. It is the first of two volumes of Professor Gombrich’s essays on the Renaissance. This collection is united by the fact that all the essays deal with what the author describes as ‘the Renaissance climate of opinion about art’ and its influence on artistic practice.
