Excerpt from Cyclopedia Universal History, Vol. 1: Embracing the Most Complete and Recent Presentation of the Subject in Two Principal Parts or Diions of More Than Six Thousand Pages
It is, however, most of all, the Scientific spirit of the nineteenth century which has demanded, at the hands of the historian, an additional guaranty for the accuracy of his work. This spirit is abroad in all the world, and prevails most of all in the highest depart ments of human thought and activity. It has not hesitated to demand that History shall become a science. It has challenged or rejected the value of all historical writings that are not pervaded with the scientific method and modeled on the inductive plan. All this is well; the historian must scrutinize the foundations of his work and the validity of his structure.
