Over 300 contributors from around the world have composed critical assessments of historians from the beginning of historical writing to the present day, including individuals from related disciplines like Jürgen Habermas and Clifford Geertz, whose theoretical contributions have informed historical debate. Additionally, the Encyclopedia includes some 200 essays treating the development of national, regional and topical historiographies, from the Ancient Near East to the history of sexuality. In addition to the Western tradition, it includes substantial assessments of African, Asian, and Latin American historians and debates on gender and subaltern studies.

Cabbages And Kings: A Book Of Incidental History
Uden Grant; Yglesias Roy
Harmondsworth: Kestrel Books, 1978. 206 pages. Ex-Library. Book and Jacket appear to have hardly been read and are both in Fine condition throughout. This collection is concerned with small incidents (in alphabetical order) rather than major events, and with what is casual and fortuitous rather than planned or designed. This does not render the chronicle unimportant, for often the trivia of history, despite(or even because of) their inconsequence, enable us to hold in mind things of greater moment.. First Edition. Hard Cover. Fine/Fine. ( more information) Offered by Marlowes Books (Australia)
