Description: Bringing together an international group of literary scholars intellectual historians and cultural historians this book discusses history in its various forms either as texts or images in the early modern period (1500 1800). Early Modern Genres of History explores different genres and representational modes regarded as history before history became a scientific discipline during the nineteenth century. It does not seek to show how the modern discipline of history as an academic study developed but rather to examine the ways in which historical texts and images became part of a wider field of early modern knowledge formations. This volume demonstrates how history was connected to the developments in the public sphere how antiquarian historians used genres in their work how history evolved and functioned in the visual field and how historical genres travelled across different contexts. Overall Early Modern Genres of History reveals how the diversity of historical representations in the early modern period has contributed to the broader foundations of history as it is understood in the twenty - first century. This volume is of great use to upper - level undergraduates postgraduates and scholars interested in early modern Europe and the history of knowledge across both the history and literature disciplines.
