Why is it important?
This article offers a fresh perspective on the development of cultural history. It challenges the dominant way of writing the history of cultural history in Europe. It also shows how the field of historiography was followed in a European periphery.
Perspectives
I hope that readers interested in cultural history and the history of historiography will find my article. I think my article has a new point and I hope to be able to share it with those interested in the topic.
