Peter N. Stearns
Peter Stearns explores two important dimensions of the pedagogic practice of history. Combining his two popular essays, "The History of History and What History Can Be" and "Why Study History?" Stearns considers anew the basic question: Why should history be studied? He also examines the relationship between the pragmatic practices in the classroom and the philosophical question of what history means. The essays in this pamphlet are designed to instruct and engage students who "don't like history" as well as students who do—and teachers who need to teach both kinds.
Peter N. Stearns is provost and professor of history at George Mason University.
