Paperback. Condizione: New. Print on Demand. This book is a compelling exploration of the historic drama. Beginning with the recitative method of writing history, which emphasizes interesting human fatalities, it traces the transition to the pragmatic method, which was characterized by the conception of history being the result of the calculations of a few powerful personalities. Moving from there, the book then discusses the evolution of the genetic method of comprehending the processes of history, which saw historic process in terms of a gradual growth produced by the cumulative effort of countless individuals, as well as natural, economic, social, cultural, and political causes. The author concludes by postulating that the genetic method opened up the possibility of seeing history in terms of a state in which individualism and collectivism, freedom and necessity, would be reconciled.
