Paperback. Condizione: new. Paperback. Spotlights historians who have embraced the methodological, practical, and ethical challenges of writing about the most slippery of subjects: their own families. Historians have often been discouraged from writing about their relatives, subjects who are deemed too close for objective analys…is. But new work by scholars interested in their own families raises fascinating questions about subjectivityand how historians might put it to use. It also invites historians to abandon traditional aspects of academic writing and draw, instead, on literary forms more equipped to highlight the relationships between scholar and material, feeling and reason. Scholars and Their Kin embraces diverse approaches to such writing, bringing into the open the personal, professional, and historiographic complexities that ensue when scholars write intimate yet self-aware histories about their families. The first book devoted to this genre, which editor Stephane Gerson terms "personal family history," this anthology features ten essays and an afterword by scholars working in this vein. The contributorsvaried in their disciplines, themes, and nationalitiesreflect on their motivations and methodological choices, the politics of family history, and the institutional constraints they have sometimes faced. Making full use of the creative possibilities of voice and form, they expand the literary ambitions of personal family history, provide readers with narrative models, and address questions of shame, responsibility, love, gendered and racial violence, family archives, as well as the tall tales, myths, misrepresentations, memories, and omissions that suffuse family lives. Scholars and Their Kin will interest historians, scholars in other disciplines, and readers interested in family histories that open broader worlds. Shipping may be from multiple locations in the US or from the UK, depending on stock availability.
