In recent historiography, it's been easier and easier to classify all scholarship into three camps: Orthodox, revisionist, and post-revisionist. This is the result of the biggest change that happened in the History profession throughout the last century, and it has significantly affected everyone in the Western world. This is going to be super-meta - so understand, I cannot get into specific historical theories, just illustrate the huge change that has happened in history. • ------------------------------------------------------------ • more videos: • previous: • • The Philippine Insurrection (1899-191... • related: • • The Frontier Thesis - Frederick Jacks... • ------------------------------------------------------------ • SUBSCRIBE FOR MORE VIDEOS: • http://www.youtube.com/subscription_c... • contribute to my Patreon: • / cynicalhistorian • LET'S CONNECT: • / cynicalcypher88 • / cynical_history • ------------------------------------------------------------ • wiki: • In historiography, the term historical revisionism identifies the re-interpretation of the historical record. It usually means challenging the orthodox views held by professional scholars about a historical event, or introducing new evidence, or of restating the motivations and decisions of the participant people. The revision of the historical record reflects the new discoveries of fact, evidence, and interpretation, which produce a revised history. In dramatic cases, revisionism involves a reversal of older moral judgments about heroes and villains. • At a basic level, historical revisionism is a common and not especially controversial process of developing and refining the writing of history. Much more controversial is the reversal of moral findings, which the heroes, good guys, or positive forces are depicted as villains, bad guys, or negative forces. This revisionism is quickly challenged by the supporters of the old view, often in heated terms. It becomes historical negationism, a form of historical revisionism that presents a re-interpretation of the moral meaning of the historical record. The term revisionism is used pejoratively by people who charge that revisionists are deliberately distorting the true historical record. • ------------------------------------------------------------ • Hashtags: #historiography #revisionism #orthodoxy #NewLeft #PostRevisionism #historians #history
