Title from publisher's bibliographic system (viewed on 12 Sep 2022).

Introduction -- The historian's character: why virtues mattered -- What virtues, which aims? why historians disagreed -- Discourse meets practice: virtues as performance criteria -- Who can be virtuous? inclusion and exclusion -- What happened to virtue? continuity and discontinuity -- Conclusion -- Bibliography.

Open Access.

Why do historians so often talk about objectivity, empathy, and fair-mindedness? What roles do such personal qualities play in historical studies? And why does it make sense to call them virtues rather than skills or habits? Historians' Virtues is the first publication to explore these questions in some depth. With case studies from across the centuries, the Element identifies major discontinuities in how and why historians talked about the marks of a good scholar. At the same time, it draws attention to long-term legacies that last until today. Virtues were, and are, invoked in debates over the historian's task. They reveal how historians position themselves vis-à-vis political regimes, religious traditions, or neoliberal university systems. More importantly, they show that historical study not only requires knowledge and technical skills, but also makes demands on the character of its practitioners. This title is also available as Open Access on Cambridge Core.
