Traditionally, the study of history has
had fixed boundaries and focal points—perious, countries, dramatic events, and
great leaders. It has also had clear and firm notions of scholarly procedure:
how one inquires into a historical problem, how one presents and documents one’s
findings, what constitutes admissible and adequate proof.
Anyone
who has followed recent historical literature, can testify to the revolution
that is taking place in historical studies. The currently fashionable
subjetcs come directly from the sociology catalog: childhood, work, leisure. The
new subjects are accompanied by new methods. Where history once was primarily
narrative, it is now entirely analytic. The old questions "What happened" and
"How did it happen" have given way to the question "Why did it happen"
Prominent among the methods used to answ
A. The approach of psychohistorians to historical study is currently popular even though it lacks the rigor and verifiability of traditional historical method.
B. Traditional historians can benefit from studying the techniques and findings of psychohistorians.
C. Areas of sociological study such as childhood and word are of little interest to traditional historians.
