From the Publisher:

Blackwell Publishers
HISTORY AND THEORY combines important essays that produced the revolution of the last 25 years and the responses to it. It is organized into categories that capture the implications of the linguistic turn and allow essays to speak directly to one another. The reader includes only essays that are clear and accessible, with philosophical depth, and which develop their points by way of actual historical examples and practices in the discipline. HISTORY AND THEORY provides an outstanding collection of recent significant reflections on the nature of history rising out of historical practice.
