Singular Pasts offers a critical account of the emergence of authorial subjectivity in historical writing, scrutinizing both its achievements and its shortcomings. Enzo Traverso considers a group of contemporary historians who reveal their emotional ties to their subjects and give their writing a literary flavor. They’re also memoirists and creators of literature themselves, not only historians.

Shadows of Being
On the Judgment of History
Encounters with Heidegger in Political Theory and Historical Reflection
Joan Wallach Scott
Jeffrey Andrew Barash
In a review of the work of Karl Jaspers, Martin Heidegger suggested that his philosophical orientation had skirted by the fundamental path of thought. This book delves into the philosophical sources of this influence and raises the question whether Heidegger indeed made good on the promise to reveal what is truly fundamental for thought. $42.00 paper 978-3-8382-1485-6 2022 260 pages

Joan Wallach Scott critically examines the belief that history will redeem us, revealing the implicit politics of appeals to the judgment of history. She argues that the notion of a linear, ever-improving direction of history hides the persistence of power structures and hinders the pursuit of alternative futures. $25.00 / £20.00 paper 978-0-231-19695-6 $95.00 / £74.00 cloth 978-0-231-19694-9 2020 144 pages
