Studding history and the results which
are subsequently inferred from it are based
on the paradigms which make the basis of
historiography. The quiddity of history
and the path which it passed to be considered
as a science is as complicated as
the humans’ life. The word “history” has
two main meaning: first, it means what
has happened in the past, and second, the
knowledge about that happening which
is gained through the written texts. Most
of the time, the second meaning is taken
into account as the meaning of history. In
this path, art history and historiography of
art are of extraordinary importance and
hence the artistic works are considered as
the beginnings of humans’ spiritual and
cultural life. This research has tried to answer to the question that what the history
and its path are by considering the traditional
and modern approaches of historiography.
In conclusion, with looking at
art history as a chosen case, history isn’t
just the event which has happened in the
past, but is the chosen subject which its
importance was considered by the historian
and the way that he writes it down.
Accordingly, the cultural, philosophical,
social and even political development in
each era has the vital effect on the method
of historiography of each period of time.
In any case, historian shows the reflection
of his thought in his writing, so obviously
his manuscript couldn’t be apart from his
mentality and personal choice which is the
dilemma both in traditional and modern
historiography. |
