Excerpt from Historical Difficulties and Contested Events
The art of writing history has two very distinct branch es, the combination of which is essential to the production of a complete his torian. A research into, and a criticism of, events with no other aim than to elicit truth, is one branch of the historical art; the other is the resolution to interpret, to describe, to give to each event its full signification and colouring; to put that life into it in fact which belongs to every human spectacle. It is only the first part of the task that we propose to undertake in these essays.
