The aim of the discussion was to compare the experiences of the different Polish academic centres from which the speakers came. Therefore, the present article focuses on the perspective of the University of Łódź, which imposes certain limitations. The author discusses the importance of methodological training in the history curriculum for academic studies. With regard to teaching practice, she attempts to clarify the broad concept of the 'methodology of history' and emphasizes the need for conscious methodological approaches to research. The text underlines the importance of methodological training in shaping research directions and fostering dialogue with other disciplines. It highlights the challenges posed by the digital turn and the need to adapt research tools to contemporary technological advances, and argues for a methodologically grounded approach to historical research. By discussing the methodological proposals of, among others, Ethan Kleinberg, Joan Wallach Scott, Gary Wilder and Ewa Domańska in the context of academic historiography, the author also attempts to show the real impact of historical turns on public discourse and political rhetoric. The deliberately simple and short title of the text is aimed at students, to make them feel invited to the above‑mentioned discussion.}, title={Why methodology in historiography?}, type={Artykuł}, URL={http://czasopisma.pan.pl/Content/133960/2024-HSRK-PDF-19.pdf}, keywords={methodology of history, methodology, academic history, historiography, theory of history, new technologies, interdisciplinarity, historical research}, }
