@NBarreyre as historians, we are stuck divided between social science and humanities. Some historians would prefer us as a social science field and that means we would need to accept a zero-bias perspective, one that does not lend itself to narrative very well. Beyond even the problem with meeting a validity/falsifiability standard, we also struggle against an inherent bias in sources and archives that crafts what counts as fact.
@NBarreyre I agree that it is a methodology or maybe better described as a particular form of discourse, but one of our problems is the obsession with our veracity. We all know, internally, the truth of that problem. Interpretive decisions are the swords we wield. Scope, focus, lens. Narrative centering and de-centering. It all changes the output. It’s not just defending the profession, it’s so much more than that.
Dr. Jessica Wranosky, Ph.D.Attended a conference this past week of fellow historians. The program content was very good, the conversation so much fun, and the ideas are flowing. I am infinitely grateful we historians are part of a broad community that includes many ideas and approaches. It really does bring so much to the experience the potential for exciting new work and collaborations. #histodons @histodons
Funny story, I wrote a paper on trains as violence (anti-modernity in late 19th/early 20th cent) in fall 2020 and had no clue it would become so prescient. #trainderailment #histodons
