Small History and Big History: Concepts, Methods and Practices of Regional Social History
by Zhao Shiyu
About This Novel
This book is the sequel to "Carnival and Everyday Life". Through the review of academic history, case studies of regional history, and the analysis of the relationship between small history and big history, this book reflects the author's ideas, methods and practical achievements in the field of regional social history research. It is the author's new thinking in the first few years after entering the 21st century. The so-called "small history" in this book refers to the "partial" history, such as personal and local history, as well as the "normal" history, the history of daily life experience, the history of joy, anger, sorrow, and social customs. The so-called "big history" here refers to the overall history, such as the history of changing dynasties, the history of the rise and fall of chaos, the history of major events, important figures, and laws and regulations. What we have to do is to bring back the life foundation of "big history" that has been removed from previous research.
