Wikipedia
History is a term that refers to information about the past. When used as the name of a field of study, ''history'' refers to the study and interpretation of the record of human people, Family history families, and Societysocieties. Knowledge of history is often said to encompass both knowledge of past events and historical thinking skills. Traditionally, the study of history has been considered a part of the humanities. However, in modern academia, history is increasingly classified as a social science, especially when chronology is the focus.
Classifications - mainHistorical classification Because history is such a large subject, organization is crucial. While several writers, such as H.G. Wells and Will Durant & Ariel Durant, have written universal histories, most historians specialize. There are several different ways of classifying historical information:Chronological (by date)Geographical (by region)National (by nation)Ethnic (by ethnic group)Topical (by subject or topic)Some people have criticized historical study, saying that it tends to be too narrowly focused on political events, armed conflicts, and famous people and that deeper and more significant changes in terms of ideas, technology, family life and culture warrant more attention. Recent developments in the practice of history have sought to address this.
Historical records - Historians obtain information about the past from various kinds of sources, including written or printed records, coins or other artifacts, buildings and monuments, and interviews (oral history). For modern history, primary sources may include photographs, motion pictures, and audio and video recordings. Different approaches may be more common in the study of some periods than in others, and perspectives of history (historiography) vary widely.Historical records have been maintained for a variety of reasons, including administrationadministrative (such as censuses, tax records, commercecommercial records), politicspolitical (glorification or criticism of leaders and notable figures), religionreligious, artartistic, sportsporting (notably the Olympics), genealogygenealogical, personal (letters), and entertainment.
History and prehistory - Traditionally the study of history was limited to the written word. However with the rise of academic professionalism and the creation of new scientific fields in the 19th and 20th centuries came a flood of new information that challenged this notion — archaeology, anthropolgy and other social sciences were opening new historical perspectives. Some traditional historians questioned whether these new studies were really history, since they were not limited to the written word, and thus a new term was coined, ''prehistory'' to separate these fields from history.In the twentieth century the artificial division between history and prehistory was proving problematic. Historians were looking beyond traditional political history narratives with new approaches such as economic, social and cultural history, all of which relied on various sources of evidence. Additionally, "prehistorians" such as Vere Gordon Childe were using archaeology to explain important events in areas that were traditionally in the field of history. The distinction was also criticized because of its implicit exclusion of certain civilizations, such as those of Sub-Saharan Africa and pre-Columbian America from the historical record. In recent decades the barriers between history and prehistory have thus largely disappeared.Today there is no generally accepted definition for when history begins. In general history is today seen as the study of everything that is known about the human past (but even this barrier is being challenged by new fields such as Big History). Sources that can give light on this past such as oral history, linguistics, and genetics, have all become accepted by mainstream historians.
Etymology - wiktionary The term ''history'' entered the English language in 1390 with the meaning of "relation of incidents, story" via the Old French ''historie'', from the Latin languageLatin ''historia'' "narrative, account." This itself was derived from the Ancient Greek Polytonicἱστορία , ''historía'', meaning "a learning or knowing by inquiry, history, record, narrative," from the verb Polytonicἱστορεῖν , ''historeîn'', "to inquire." This, in turn, was derived from polytonicἵστωρ , ''hístōr'' ("wise man," "witness," or "judge"). Early attestations of polytonicἵστωρ are from the Homeric Hymns, Heraclitus, the AthensAthenian ephebes' oath, and from BoeotiaBoiotic inscriptions (in a legal sense, either "judge" or "witness," or similar). The spirant is problematic, and not present in cognate Greek ''eídomai'' ("to appear").polytonicἵστωρ is ultimately from the Proto-Indo-European languageProto-Indo-European ''*wid-tor-'', from the Root (linguistics)root ''*weid-'' ("to know, to see"), also present in the English word ''wit'', the Latin words ''vision'' and ''video'', the Sanskrit languageSanskrit word ''veda'', and the Slavic languageSlavic word ''videti'', as well as others. (The asterisk before a word indicates that it is a hypothetical construction, not an attested form.) 'polytonicἱστορία , ''historía'', is an Ionic GreekIonic derivation of the word, which with Ionic science and philosophy were spread first in Classical Greece and ultimately over all of Hellenism.In Middle English, the meaning was "story" in general. The restriction to the meaning "record of past events" in the sense of Herodotus arises in the late 15th century (interestingly, in German, this distinction was never made, and the modern German word "Geschichte" means both history and story, just like the word "storia" in Italian). A sense of "systematic account" without a reference to time in particular was current in the 16th century, but is now obsolete. The adjective ''historical'' is attested from 1561, and ''historic'' from 1669. ''Historian'' in the sense of a "researcher of history" in a higher sense than that of an Annalsannalist or chronicler, who merely record events as they occur, is attested from 1531.
Historiography - ''See full article: Historiography''Historiography is the study and analysis of history through a belief system or philosophy. Although there is arguably some intrinsic bias in historical studies (with national bias perhaps being the most significant), history can also be studied from ideologyideological perspectives, such as Marxist historiography.A form of historical speculation known commonly as virtual history ("counterfactual history") has also been adopted by some historians as a means of assessing and exploring the possible outcomes if certain events had not occurred or had occurred in a different way. This is somewhat similar to the alternative history genre of fiction.
Historical methods - Historians of note who have advanced the historical methods of study include Leopold von Ranke, Lewis Bernstein Namier, Geoffrey Rudolph Elton, G.M. Trevelyan and A.J.P. Taylor. In recent years, postmodernismpostmodernists have challenged the validity and need for the study of history on the basis that all history is based on the personal interpretation of sources. In his book ''In Defence of History'', Richard J. Evans, a professor of modern history at Cambridge University, defended the worth of history.
The lessons of history - In addition to being an interesting topic of study in its own right, historians often claim that the study of history teaches valuable lessons with regard to past successes and failures of leaders, economic systems, forms of government, and other recurring themes in the human story. From history we may learn factors that result in the rise and fall of nation-states or civilizations, motivations for political actions, the effects of social philosophies, and perspectives on culture and technology. One of the most famous quotations about history and the value of studying history by Spanish peopleSpanish philosopher, George Santayana, reads: "Those who cannot remember the past are condemned to repeat it." The German PeopleGerman German PhilosophyPhilosopher. Georg Wilhelm Friedrich Hegel remarked in his ''Philosophy of history'' that: "What history and experience teach us is this: that people and government never have learned anything from history or acted on principles deduced from it." This was famously Paraphraseparaphrased by the United KingdomBritish Prime Minister of the United Kingdomstateman, Winston Churchill into: "The one thing we have learned from history is that we don't learn from history."Winston Churchill alluded to another philosophy of history when he quipped, "History will be kind to me for I intend to write it." Churchill's joking comment is a variant of the famous: "History is written by the victors." In this view, the winners in human conflicts get to put their own spin (public relations)spin on historic events.An alternative view is that the forces of history are too great to be changed by human deliberation, or that, even if people do change the course of history, the movers and shakers of this world are usually too self-involved to stop to look at the big picture.Another view is that history does not repeat itself because of the uniqueness of any given historical event. In this view, the specific combination of factors at any moment in time can never be repeated, and so knowledge about events in the past can not be directly and beneficially applied to the present. This approach is challenged in less Meta-meta-historical terms with the notion that historical lessons can and should be drawn from events, and that careful generalizations of unique events is useful. For example, state of emergencyemergency response to natural disasters can be improved, even though each individual disaster is, in itself, absolutely unique.
