The problem of history

Seth Vannatta

pp. 74-83

Once Hegel, Marx, Darwin, and Maine, as representative figures of the 19th century, proffered a historical analysis of Enlightenment era concepts, the question of history itself became, at least potentially, either silent and opaque to the historian or open to explicit philosophical investigation. Thus, when we use historical analysis, we do better to make more transparent what we think the meaning and purpose of historical analysis is.
