De historicus tussen hamer en aambeeld. Het collectieve geheugen in België anno 2001, t.a.v. collaboratie, Nieuwe Orde en jodenvervolging in 1940-1944
"Ceci n'est pas un historien". Construction and deconstruction of Henri Pirenne.
Several images of Pirenne should be critically deconstructed: founding father of the Ghent historical school, icon of the nation-state Belgium, talent for combination of suggestive synthesis and classical erudition, impact of liberal and democratic ideology.
"That Theory of Races". Henri Pirenne on the unfinished business of the Great War.
In November 1919, the Belgian medievalist Henri Pirenne interpreted wartime Germany as an empire led astray by a "pernicious race theory," which continued to sway postwar German perspectives. This article argues that Pirenne was correct in criticising Weimar-era essentialism and links the völkisch perspective to the German military occupations of the First World War.
History and the history of science in the work of Hendrik De Man.
Hendrik De Man, politician and political theorist in the Marxist tradition, was one of the principal advocates of technocratic central planning in the 1930s. The essay examines De Man's earlier intellectual and social affinity with historian Henri Pirenne and historian of science George Sarton (1884-1956).
Henri Pirenne and Karl Lamprecht's Kulturgeschichte. Intellectual transfer or théorie fumeuse ?
The first part of the article focuses on Lamprecht's and Pirenne's eagerness to develop a professional and international historical science. The second part analyses the actual impact of Lamprecht's Kulturgeschichte on Pirenne's Histoire de Belgique. This impact was selective and partial like most cases of cultural transfer.
Pirenne and Fredericq. Historiographical ambitions around 1900.
For almost four decades, Paul Fredericq and Henri Pirenne shared their lives, first in the small academic community of the university of Ghent, later – in the Great War – as prisoners of the German occupiers. In this article, both historians are considered as the personifications of the new historiographical ambitions which were taking hold around 1900.
'Den ouden luijster is verdwenen'. Geschiedenis, herinnering en verlies bij Jan Baptist Van der Straelen (1792-1817).
Voor de behoudsgezinde Antwerpse historicus Jan Baptist Van der Straelen was het verwoestende werk van de tijd een voortdurende preoccupatie. Aan de hand van de kroniek die hij samen met zijn vader bijhield tussen 1770 en 1817, wordt gepeild naar het effect van de Franse periode op het tijdsbesef van deze auteur. Leidden de revolutionaire vernieuwingen tot een breuk in zijn verhouding tot het verleden of weerstond zijn geschiedopvatting de revolutionaire storm ?
Back to the basis. Occupations and the meaning of occupational titles in 19th-century Belgium.
This paper deals with occupation in 19th-century Belgium, more exactly with the occupational titles exactly as they are written in the original documents, before any codification. Changing meanings of occupation according to time and space (context) is the main focus.
Introduction: Occupational titles? Hard to eat, easy to catch.
We present an overview of the historical critique on the use of occupational titles in stratification analysis and of recent methodological developments in historical research on social stratification. The chapters of this issue are presented in the light of this debate.
Orakelen over de heimelijkheid. Seksualiteit in de Belgische historiografie.
Als voorwoord van dit themanummer wil deze bijdrage kritisch stilstaan bij het werk van drie invloedrijke auteurs en de metanarratieven die zij overerfden en verder nuanceerden met betrekking tot de geschiedenis van de seksualiteit in het moderne Westen. Daarnaast schetsen we de contouren van een nieuwe tak van de historiografie en perspectieven voor de toekomst.
