Abstract: |
This chapter presents the proposed rules or "laws" for research and the selection of the subject under examination in the human and social sciences. It discusses their status as rules or laws and their applicability to historical science, as well as the very concept of method within the same science. Some of the specific issues examined in this chapter include the following: what are the basic elements of form and structure in historical writing, how the historian can use narration, analysis, and description, quotes, footnotes, and bibliography, and even the conflicting opinions that have been expressed on an issue. The analysis is enriched with many examples and exercises to help readers understand the complex and demanding process of writing a historical study.
