Carlo Ginzburg - Microhistory

Source - serious-science...
What could a 16th century miller teach us? How does an intensive study of one case lead to a better generalization? Why do geopolitics influence our perception of world history? UCLA Professor of Italian Renaissance Studies, the author of "The Cheese and the Worms", Carlo Ginzburg, explains why the approach to studying history is changing.

The Cheese and the Worms fundamentally changed my understanding of history in such profound ways. I have had many a 'Menocchio moment' of my own since reading it

Carlo Ginzburg is a great hystorian and a amazing person. He was one of the people who asked to Vatican to OPEN THEIR FILES. Bravísssimo 👏👏👏

Definitely, he is a living legend as a historian. I like brave of Ginzburg in matter of new account to historical problems. Of course his work "Cheese and worms" was controversial and some historians believe that it's not a good book, but it's safe to say that it was important book in XX century historiography.

Self-publicity and self-agrandissement is never a good presentation card, it delegitimizes potential good work. The best approach when talking about oneself and one's works is humbleness.
