WHAT IS HISTORY?

on Third Programme

Six talks by E. H. CARR Fellow of Trinity College, Cambridge
1: The Historian and his Facts
These talks are a broadcast version of Professor Carr's Trevelyan Lectures given earlier this year. In the first he deals with history as a process of interaction, a dialogue between the historian in the present and the facts of the past. Before you study history, says Professor Carr, study the historian.
