Description

This book is an extended version of the Wiles lectures given at the Queen's University, Belfast, in 1954.

It illustrates the rise, scope, methods and objectives of the history of historiography.

Significant landmarks in the history of historical scholarship are examined to illustrate the various kinds of treatment that can be given to the subject.
