Résumé anglais |
The cultural history of contemporary France. Questions and questioning, Pascal Ory.
Although fashionable contemporary cultural history still suffers from conceptual in determinacy « culture » should be defined precisely, and specified vis-à-vis « politics » and « economic ». The author postulates that cultural history is the social history of representations. However, the historian deals more with what is measurable, quantifiable in other words, with forms less than with the very content itself of this representation. No serious cultural history can be conceived without knowledge of the broad outlines of the history of science and communication techniques. The result would be a study of the varieties of logic of experience, presented as relative to each society and conferring meaning to it. Source : Éditeur (via Persée) |
