Historians are looking beyond the traditional, and turning to visual, oral, aural, and virtual sources to inform their work. The challenges these sources pose require new skills of interpretation and require historians to consider alternative theoretical and practical approaches. This book explains why, when and how these sources can be used.
Sources are the bedrock of history. But over the past few years the question of 'what is a historical source' has become an increasingly prominent concern. In History Beyond the Text, Sarah Barber and Corinna Peniston-Bird, open up the discussion on sources to those beyond the 'traditional' ones.
