| Abstract
|
:
|
Each of these texts represents at least one of these categories: early examples of historiography (e.g. Herodotus and Augustine); non-western works (e.g. Shaddad and Fukuzawa); 'critical' historiography (e.g. Mabillon and Ranke); history of minorities, neglected groups or subjects (e.g. Said and Needham); broad sweeps of history (e.g. Mumford and Hofstadter); and problematic or unconventional historiography (e.g. Foucault and White).
