This review is from: The Practice of Conceptual History: Timing History, Spacing Concepts (Cultural Memory in the Present) (Paperback)
Reinhart Koselleck has been the best philosopher of history in the last quarter of the twentieh century and the begining of the new millennium, until his death in 2006. Koselleck clearly saw that history needed its own theoretical basis, sprung from the analysis of temporal structures and of the modes of historical experience. Only in this way could history supersed a situation in which there are no proper objects (being those of the other human sciences)and there are no proper rules of discourse (out of the procedures for establishing the verificability of an assertion). Nobody has developed this theoretical reason more convincingly than Koselleck. You always learn something new and relevant when reading this German scholar. And this book is one of his best works.
