  Book Description
  Publication Date: August 8, 2011
  This new book offers a clear and accessible exposition
of Hayden White's thought. In an engaging and wide-ranging analysis, Herman Paul discusses White's core ideas and traces
the development of these ideas from the mid-1950s to the present. Starting with White's medievalist research and
youthful fascination for French existentialism, Paul shows how White became increasingly convinced that historical
writing is a moral activity. He goes on to argue that the critical concepts that have secured White's fame –
trope, plot, discourse, figural realism – all stem from his desire to explicate the moral claims and perceptions
underlying historical writing. White emerges as a passionate thinker, a restless rebel against scientism, and a defender
of existentialist humanist values.
  This innovative introduction will appeal to students and scholars across the
humanities, and help develop a critical understanding of an increasingly important thinker.
  
 
Reviews
  "As an introduction to the thought and work of Hayden White, it is
hard to see this volume being surpassed for some considerable time."Reviews in
History
  
  "A thoughtful, comprehensive and much needed introduction to the work of White. It is
not only well argued and researched, but also readable and accessible. It should be required reading not only for
undergraduate and postgraduate students, but all historians who want to understand how the discipline of history changed
over the twentieth century."International Network for Theory of History
  
  "Paul has accessibly, lucidly and systematically analysed the development of White’s thought in such a way as
to challenge the common understanding of White as a poststructuralist and postmodernist. He has, in short, produced a
fine introduction."European Review of History
  
  "Warmly recommended
to every historian as a reliable roadmap into the highly relevant quest of this philosopher."Leidschrift
  
  "Should be applauded for bringing to bear a much-needed
philosophical perspective on Hayden White’s influential and extensive oeuvre."Philosophy of the Social Sciences
  
  "This study is unlikely to be surpassed
in the near future in its scholarly attention to detail."H-Soz-u-Kult
  
  "A useful, and in many ways exemplary, introduction to White’s legacy."History and
Theory
  
  "A sharp book on an American intellectual whose work was not that of an outsider
throwing rocks at a profession. This essay-review applauds Paul's endeavor."Rethinking
History
  
  "The most balanced introduction to White’s philosophy of history
available."Torbjörn Gustafsson Chorell, Uppsala University
  
  "This
book both attests to the importance of Hayden White as a metahistorian and provides a lucid account of his life and
thought. It is a well-deserved tribute to the work and the man - a reliable introduction and an invitation to join in
the critical dialogue his thought encourages."Dominick LaCapra, Cornell
University
  
  "In this deeply researched and probing analysis of Hayden White, Herman Paul offers
a strikingly novel interpretation of the goals and significance of his theories of historical writing. In contrast to
virtually all previous commentators, Paul argues that the core of White's work is not principally concerned with
rhetoric and narratology as such but seeks, instead, to offer a form of 'liberation historiography' that can free
historians of the 'burden of history,' a concern stemming from White's lifelong embrace of existentialist humanism.
Narratology, in Paul's view, achieved prominence in White's thinking because it offered a way to contest positivist
history and thus unburden historians of their espousal of naïve realism and fantasies of objectivity."Gabrielle M. Spiegel, Johns Hopkins University
