I've just discovered that the History News Network has added this site to their extensive blogroll of history weblogs. Their extensive list is well worth a glance through for anyone interested in the past and its influence over the present and future.
My thanks also go out to Jon Swift, the first to blogroll me; Doghouse Riley, who offered a nice recommendation; D. Cupples at Buck Naked Politics; and the blogger of Dancing with Myself. Thanks to all.
just a good hearty hello from Seattle, through our very good friend, the most esteemed Robert Pearson.
ReplyDeleteBTW, in passing only: have you read Braudel, or Toynbee, or Spengler or Dilthey?

No on Dilthey, and only a tiny bit of Toynbee and Spengler. A bit more few of Braudel.
ReplyDeleteOne day many years ago, before I started graduate school, I was a substitute teacher in a seventh grade math class and the kids didn't have enough work to keep them busy. I created a couple of quick story problems from the Braudel"s The Structures of Everyday Life, which I happened to have with me.
