How does history relate to the past? According to leading historical theorists, the relation to the past in history is reducible to evidential, psychological, practical and retrospective concerns. In contrast, this volume claims that historical relations to the past are irreducible products of the logical commitments of history as method. Ahlskog argues that the method of history shapes and enables relations to the past in historical research by invoking past perspectives of meaning for rendering reality intelligible. The book provides a much-needed philosophical clarification of key concepts in one of the most fundamental debates within the humanities today.

This Element explores the relation between historiography and testimony as a question about what it means to know and understand the past historically. In contrast with the recent rapprochement between memory accounts and history in historical theory, the Element argues for the importance of attending to conceptually distinct relations to past actions and events in historical thinking compared with testimony. The conceptual distinctiveness of history is elucidated by placing historical theory in dialogue with the epistemology of testimony and classical philosophy of history. By clarifying the rejection of testimony inherent in the evidential paradigm of modern historical research, this Element provides a thoroughgoing account of the ways in which historical knowledge and understanding relates to testimony. The argument is that the role of testimony in historiography is fundamentally shaped by the questioning-activity at the core of critical historical research. This title is also available as Open Access on Cambridge Core.

This book argues for the value of reading Peter Winch (1926–1997), one of the important philosophers of the 20th century and known especially for his work on Wittgenstein and the philosophy of the social sciences, paired with R. G. Collingwood (1889–1942), famous for his philosophy of history.Both Winch’s and Collingwood’s seminal works made a deep impact on debates on the aims and methods of the human sciences. Moreover, their similarity on those topics rested on a shared vision of philosophy in general. This is the first book-length treatment of the two philosophers together. The authors make use of untapped manuscript sources and posthumous material published only in the last decades to show that Winch and Collingwood were much closer than expected and to lay to rest some pervasive misunderstandings. Underneath their shared views on the autonomy of the human sciences was a contextualising approach to logic, language and metaphysics.An accessible articulation of Winch’s and Collingwood’s thinking on key points, this volume is valuable reading for students and scholars interested in the philosophy of history and social science, presenting a vision of philosophy as an intellectual and existential pursuit.

How can historians study the interplay between local and global contexts, exchanges and encounters in the modern era? This volume contributes to the field of global history by exploring the concept of “global history from below” and investigates global historical scales of analysis, the relation between micro and macro levels, and the diverse ways that global issues have been articulated on the local level. By introducing novel methodological and theoretical considerations, the volume investigates the relation between the global and the local over ten chapters and an introduction. The “global history from below” framework enables investigations into a wide range of themes such as Norwegian sugar refineries in the transatlantic trade system, humanitarianism in the Nigerian Civil War, opium smoking in the Far East, deindustrialization as experienced by workers, and trade unionism in Africa. The volume Global History from Below provides students, researchers and general readers with palpable case studies for discussing global dimensions of local contexts, encounters and exchanges in the modern era.
