The twenty studies collected in this volume focus on the transition from the Middle Ages to the modern world. The method leads from technical investigations on William Durant the Younger (ca. 1266-1330) and Hermann Conring (1606-1681) through reflection on the nature of historical knowledge to a break with historicism, an affirmation of anachronism, and a broad perspective on the history of Europe. The introduction explains when and why these studies were written, and places them in the context of contemporary historical thinking by drawing on Wittgenstein's Philosophical Investigations. This book will appeal to historians with an interest in historical theory, historians of late medieval and early modern Europe, and students looking for the meaning of history.

Constantin Fasolt is the Karl J. Weintraub Professor of History and the College at the University of Chicago. He obtained his Ph.D. at Columbia University in 1981. He is the author of Council and Hierarchy: The Political Thought of William Durant the Younger (Cambridge, 1991) and The Limits of History (Chicago, 2004).
