The Killing of History: How Literary Critics and Social Theorists Are Murdering Our Past Hardcover - 1997

by Keith Windschuttle


From the publisher

History today, according to Keith Windschuttle, is in the clutches of radical literary and social theorists who have little respect for, or training in the discipline. In The Killing of History he presents a series of fascinating case studies that demonstrate how radical-chic theorizing, in the service of a political agenda, has been supplanting traditional historical learning. This devastating expose reveals the extent to which contemporary historians--often denying the very existence of truth--are engaged in a project of obscuring the facts that provide the foundation for real knowledge of the past.
