noun historiographies
- The writing of history; a written history. As was mentioned on p.31, value-judgments are generally considered the most conspicuous source of subjectivity in historiography.
- The study of the discipline and practice of history and the writings of past historians. In its broadest sense, historiography has to do with the process of historical writing, the identification and use of source material, and the techniques and methods applied to the analysis of these data.
