Présentation de l'éditeur
This book presents a study of the nature and conditions of historical knowledge, conducted through a study of the relevant theories of Hume, Hegel and Vico. It is usually thought that in order to establish historical facts, we have to have a theory of human nature to support our arguments. Hume, Hegel and Vico all subscribed to this view, and are therefore discussed in detail. Professor Pompa goes on to argue that there is in fact no way of discovering anything about human nature except through historical investigation. It is necessary therefore to find a different way of thinking about how we discover historical facts. This is done in the last chapter where, in opposition to almost all present views, it is argued that we must have a framework of inherited knowledge before we can believe in anything which results from historical enquiry.

Cloth with dustjacket. Etat : Gut. VIII, 234 p. Aus der Bibliothek von Prof. Wolfgang Haase, langjährigem Herausgeber der ANRW und des International Journal of the Classical Tradition (IJCT) / From the library of Prof. Wolfgang Haase, long-time editor of ANRW and the International Journal of the Classical Tradition (IJCT). - Schutzumschlag leicht berieben, leichte Randläsuren, Bleistiftanmerkung auf Vorsatz, sonst guter Zustand und innen sauber / dust jacket slightly rubbed, light edgewear, pencil annotation on endpaper, otherwise good condition and inside clean. - It is commonly argued that historical knowledge requires the critical interpretation of evidence. If historical fact is to be distinguished from fiction, therefore, a reliable interpretative methodology is also required. One of the most widely supported beliefs is that the required methodology can be reliable only if it rests upon a defensible conception of human nature. The first three chapters of this book, therefore, consist in a critical discussion of the theories of three distinguished thinkers who have subscribed to this view but have differed both about their conceptions of human nature and about the ways in which to establish them. As a result of this discussion two apparently contradictory conclusions are reached. On the one hand, it is argued, it is not possible to rest the relevant methodology upon a theory of human nature, because any such conception would determine, externally and a priori, the character of what we can believe about the past. On the other hand, however, it seems that there must still be some constraints upon what we are free to believe, if the distinction between fact and fiction is to be observed. In the concluding chapter, therefore, Professor Pompa suggests that this requirement can be met only by introducing the notion of an historical consciousness, of which certain historically acquired beliefs about the past are constitutive, and which is sufficient to ground the distinction between historical fact and fiction. / CONTENTS Introduction 1 HUME: The Constancy of Human Nature Introduction The science of man The formal conditions of historical knowledge The causal nature of historical inference The uniformity of human nature The constancy of human consciousness Epistemological neutralism The uniformity of concepts The ontological status of social ideas Conclusion 2 HEGEL: The Self-Development of Reason Introduction Hegel and the constancy of human nature Pre-philosophical history Philosophical history The final cause The efficient cause The material cause The relationship between the final, efficient and material causes Dialectic and the final end The logical priority of the idea First-order and second-order history Conclusion 3 VICO: THE IDEAL ETERNAL HISTORY Vico and Hegel The non-rational origins of humanity First-order history and emergent rationality Emergent rationality and the 'ideal eternal history' Providence The logical status of the 'ideal eternal history' Philosophy and philology Philosophy of the self and society as a self Conclusion 4 HISTORICAL CONSCIOUSNESS AND HISTORICAL KNOWLEDGE The concept of an historical perspective Existential historical facts Historical forms of consciousness The existence and location of historical consciousness The limits of constancy and change Historical consciousness and historical knowledge Bibliography Index.
