By embedding a profound philosophical reflection on the themes of historical time and historical discourse in a concrete series of case studies, this project transcends the traditional divide between 'empirical' historiography on the one hand and the so called 'theoretical' approaches to history on the other. It also breaks with the conventional 'analytical' philosophy of history that has been dominant during the last decades, raising a series of long-neglected 'big questions' about the historical condition - questions about historical time, the unity of history, and the ontological status of present and past -programmatically pleading for a new historical ethics.
Reviews / Votes
"In the end, Bevernage accomplishes nothing less than a completely new understanding of the referential illusion of historical discourse ... As with many truly original works of criticism, Bevernage's arguments seem so perfectly obvious in hindsight ... Reading History, Memory, and State-Sponsored Violence is a humbling experience." Wulf Kansteiners, SUNY Binghamton"This book is already destined to become a classic." Chris Lorenz, Free University of Amsterdam

The file format PDF always displays a book page identically on any hardware. This makes PDF suitable for complex layouts such as those used in textbooks and reference books (images, tables, columns, footnotes). Unfortunately, on the small screens of e-readers or smartphones, PDFs are rather annoying, requiring too much scrolling.
This eBook uses Adobe-DRM, a „hard” copy protection. If the necessary requirements are not met, unfortunately you will not be able to open the eBook. You will therefore need to prepare your reading hardware before downloading.
