"This book introduces a new way of looking at the writing of history. Rather than
as the production of knowledge or the telling of stories, it sees writing history
as an ethical, existential and emotional engagement with the people from the past.
The conceptual and philosophical basis for this view is provided by the philosophy
of Emmanuel Levinas. In the first part, the view is presented and contrasted with
other, competing views, such as those of Hans-Georg Gadamer and Michel Foucualt. In
the second part, the view is argued for, most importantly by an in-depth discussion
of one specific tradition of history-writing (microhistory), and a series of close
readings of several classical works from the history of historiography. The third
part, finally, explores some of the methodological consequences of this view, and
applies it to a non-academic way of dealing with the past, namely historical performance
practice in music. The book features a foreword by Frank Ankersmit"--Provided by publisher
