![]() Chapter 6 (Society and the Individual) is concerned mostly with whether or not certain individuals can be understood as separated from their society, caused by their society, or some middle position. Chapter 5 (Causation in History) asks whether or not there is any way one can say one event or a series of events caused other events. In Chapter 2 (History, Science, and Morality) examines two things primarily: whether historians can make moral judgements about the past and whether or not the discipline is a “science.” Chapter 3 (Historians and Their Facts) addresses the question, “What is a historical fact?” Chapter 4 (Sources and Discourses) examines the difference between the sources used by historians to construct their narrative and the narrative itself. In Chapter 1 (The History of History) Evans gives readers a lesson in historiography. While Evans does not defend the antiquated idea that we can be purely “objective” he does go toe-to-toe with those who deny that historians can tell us something about what happened in the past. All historical reconstruction is essentially narrative and the facts do not matter. ![]() In light of the postmodern shift there have been many philosophers and even historians who have argued that there is no way to do “objective” history. ![]() Evans’ In Defense of History is a passionate defense of the work done by historians.

When she gets home, her worst fears start to become reality, heavy-metal music blasting out the windows, bloody handprints by the kitchen door, the shed door locked, but the gun-safe open and empty… They're always available or they pre-advise that they won't be. Although Faith runs through the thousand and one reasons why this might be so and not be a problem, she doesn't really believe any of them. Her day, however, is going to get a whole lot worse. This mattered more than it would for most of us, because Faith is diabetic. A three-hour training seminar had stretched into four-and-a-half-hours, which meant that not only was she late picking up her baby daughter from her mothers' she was also starving hungry. Summary: With an ex-cop missing and the clock ticking, the bodies start to pile up – good solid crime drama.įaith Mitchell is not having a good day. ![]() ![]() Also, I love an epistolary novel the constraint required makes for a more interesting story, sometimes. Nothing gets me hooked more than something people are disgusted by - I just have to know what’s up. I keep seeing posts on BookTok about it, and a lot of book influencers have talked about how shocking and horrific it is. ![]() Mary: When you mentioned that y’all were reading this book, I knew I had to force my way into the discussion because I’ve been wanting to read it for a long time. We also have a guest with us this time! So welcome, Mary! What made you want to join Queer Girl Book Club for this particular book? Agnes seems desperate to find connection, and Zoe… well, her motivations are a little less clear and something I think we should discuss. Agnes meets Zoe when she’s trying to sell her apple peeler on a queer message board. It’s a novella written all through e-mails and instant messages between two women who enter into a BSDM relationship with each other that’s entirely virtual. ![]() So where does our latest one fall on the scale? This time, we’re discussing Things Have Gotten Worse Since We Last Spoke by Eric LaRocca. ![]() We’ve read some great books, we’ve read some okay books, and we’ve read some really bad ones.
