«The Content of the Form: Narrative Discourse and Historical Representation» is an essay on historiography by Hayden White, in paperback (261 pages).
In this work, Hayden White analyses how narrative shapes historical understanding: consciousness endows the past with meaning through narrative structures and, in doing so, turns the present into an inheritance of a past from which we wish to descend. The book brings together studies on narrativity, historical interpretation and authors such as Foucault, Jameson and Ricoeur.
Published in 1990 by Johns Hopkins University Press; text in English. Includes index and bibliography (pages 215-236); the work falls within historiography, history and literary criticism.
A title for students and those interested in theory of history, historiography and literary criticism.
Hayden V. White was an American historian in the tradition of literary criticism. He wrote Metahistory: The Historical Imagination in Nineteenth-Century Europe in 1973.
