A Concise History of History: Global Historiography… por Daniel Woolf
Daniel Woolf (° 1958) definitely is a specialist when it comes to the history of historiography. He published the doorstopping “A Global History of History” in 2011, and reworked and abridged this book into this “Concise” version, aimed at undergraduates. It has become a solid overview, of course with a lot of names, which gives it a rather encyclopaedic outlook. Woolf's merit is that he also tries to portray non-Western historiography. But let's be honest: he doesn't quite succeed. I estimate that about 4/5th of this book is still Western historiography, or historiography inspired by it. How could it be otherwise, you might say.
