Opponents of the Annales School [Hardcover]

Based on analysis of archival and published sources, Opponents of the Annales School examines for the first time those who have dared to criticise and ignore one of the most successful currents of thought in modern historiography. It offers an original contribution to the understanding of an unavoidable chapter in modern intellectual history.Contents Acknowledgements Note on the Text Abbreviations Introduction: 'Annales Continues...'
