Book, Twelve Lessons About History[LS]

Language: Brazilian Portuguese. The lessons you should know about History and the profession of historian. In this book, whose content is taken from a course held at the Sorbonne, Antoine Prost analyzes, with complete clarity, each of the stages of the historical method, without forgetting reposition History and the historian in contemporary society and in their profession. In addition to an initiation treatise for reflection work – fueled by wide readings –, this work reflects an original way of thinking."The challenge that, from now on, historians must face is to transform the memory demand of their contemporaries in history.""The cult of the past responds to the uncertainty of the future and the absence of a collective project. The collapse of great ideologies – which, on a political level, constitutes an undeniable progress in lucidity – leaves our contemporaries without references."
