A SUPPLEMENT TO CROCE'S EARLIER "THEORY AND PRACTICE" BOOK

Benedetto Croce () was an Italian idealist philosopher, and occasional politician. He also wrote History: its theory and practice. He wrote in the Foreword to this book, "I do not wish to offer this book in replacement of the previous book, but only to add new considerations born of my further studies and stimulated by new experience of life. In conformity with its origin, this book consists of a series of essays which share an implicit unity in the thought which runs through them all." (Pg. 5)

He states early on, "historical judgment is not a variety of knowledge, but it is knowledge itself; it is the form which completely fills and exhausts the field of knowing, leaving no room for anything else."

Theory & History of Historiography by Benedetto Croce

"Theory & History of Historiography" by Benedetto Croce is an analytical work on the philosophy and methodology of historiography written in the early 20th century. This treatise aims to deepen the understanding of historical narratives by exploring concepts such as the distinction between history and chronicle, the role of documents, and the meaning of historical truth.

He emphasizes that history should not merely recount events but should inspire critical thought and self-reflection within the reader, thereby linking past experiences with current realities. Croce addresses the inadequacies of traditional historical methods that separate historical narratives from living contexts and documents, arguing that tr
