You will explore the 'history of history', examining its foundations in the ancient world, the development of medieval and early modern conceptions of history, as well as history in its many modern forms. The subject also considers non-Western conceptions of history and explores some of the key questions and debates over the nature of history itself. These include questions about history as an empirical discipline or social science, history as a narrative of progress, history as fiction, history as national epic, history as class struggle, history as the lives of great humans and the 'end' of history. As such, this subject aims to help you develop a deeper and more critical understanding of history as a discipline.
