Historical thinking and work

Dr. Thomas Kailer (International Centre for Higher Education Research Kassel, University of Kassel)


The lecture addresses basic questions and perspectives of historical thinking and working. Terms or concepts such as "change", "causality", "contingency", "location-boundness", "perspectivity", "objectivity", "facts" or "narration" will be addressed as well as operations of historical work, e.g. source work, re- and deconstruction, interpretation, understanding and explaining, narration. Sources for historical university research will serve as examples.
