I reflect on the misunderstanding of the methodology of history by historians and scholars from other disciplines and/or fields within the humanities and social sciences. Exploring ways to enhance the current state of affairs, I argue for a redefinition of this area of study as the “theory of history.” I show various ways in which this “theory” is connected to other disciplines and/or fields within the humanities and social sciences. I list readings that I believe should be included in the curriculum of young scholars. I highlight hitherto overlooked intellectual territories, in particular the study of Russian thought, especially the philosophy of history. In addition, I propose the establishment of support networks to foster a more collaborative and inclusive academic environment, aimed at increasing the visibility of our field within the humanities and social sciences. This approach seeks to broaden the disciplinary scope and facilitate a more nuanced understanding of history’s methodological (theoretical) engagements.}, title={Methodology and theory of history and their visibility in Poland}, type={Artykuł}, URL={http://czasopisma.pan.pl/Content/133961/2024-HSRK-PDF-20.pdf}, keywords={methodology of history, theory of history, Russian thought, support networks}, }
