Attitudes Toward History is a two-volume work by the renowned literary critic and philosopher, Kenneth Burke. The book is an exploration of the various attitudes that people hold towards history, and how these attitudes shape our understanding of the past. Burke argues that our attitudes towards history are not objective or neutral, but are shaped by our individual experiences, biases, and cultural backgrounds. The first volume of the book focuses on the theoretical framework for understanding attitudes towards history, while the second volume provides case studies of specific historical events and how different attitudes towards these events have shaped our understanding of them. Throughout the book, Burke emphasizes the importance of understanding our own attitudes towards history in order to better understand the perspectives of others, and to develop a more nuanced and complex understanding of the past. Attitudes Toward History is a seminal work in the field of literary criticism and has had a significant impact on the study of history and historiography.Two Volumes In One Book.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
