«Combates por la historia» is Lucien Febvre's essay on historiography, published by Ariel in paperback (246 pages, in Spanish).
The work defends a renewed history against sterile erudition and traditional political history, which limited itself to establishing facts from texts. Its proposal is to organize the past in function of the present and make historical research a useful and relevant discipline for its time.
The work was originally published in French in 1953 as «Combats pour l'histoire»; this Spanish edition is from 1992, in the Ariel collection, number 68.
Recommended for history students and readers interested in the debate on the method and role of historiography.
