4. HISTORICAL THINKING AND OTHER UNNATURAL ACTS
Charting the Future of Teaching the Past
“The essays in this book begin with the basic assumption that history teaches us a way to make choices, to balance opinions, to tell stories and to become uneasy—when necessary—about the stories we tell.” (p. ix)
“When I informed the professor that I would review the literature on history learning, I met a chilly response. ‘Can’t,’ she said matter-of-factly,-’there’s no literature to review.” (xi)
See page xii for a run down of how the book is organized.
We will start our discussion of the book by reading Chapter 3 and discussing that chapter at our Sept. 7th symposium.
