Marx's "historical Notes" and the 19th Century (hai Guo Tu Zhi)
by Lin Guorong
About This Novel
The direct combination of knowledge and power was the zeitgeist developed in the 19th century. In Europe in the mid-to-late 19th century, the basic consciousness of the mainstream historical tradition all revealed some kind of progress theory appeal. However, Marx's "Historical Notes" denied any universal intention and only highlighted the violent collision of accidental events in time and space, becoming a clear counter-trend. The author of this book takes the major epistemological and methodological changes in the European historical tradition in the mid-to-late 19th century as the axis to explore the spirit of the times and the political-historical-economic background from which Marx's "Historical Notes" originated. By comparing and contrasting the worldview and historical research methods of different trends at that time, "Historical Notes" was positioned in the European historiographic tradition in the mid-to-late 19th century.
