Concept information

Preferred term

historiography  

Definition(s)

  • Historiography is concerned with historical interpretations and representations of the past—put another way, the writing of history as opposed to history itself. Although historiography is primarily a disciplinary phrase introduced by contemporary academics, the inquiry it represents can be traced back to the very earliest origins of historical writing in the work of ancient Greek writers who reflected on each others' historical conclusions.
