This week, ending in September 03 2015:
Today's thread is for open discussion of:
History in the academy
Historiographical disputes, debates and rivalries
Implications of historical theory both abstractly and in application
Philosophy of history
And so on
Regular participants in the Thursday threads should just keep doing what they've been doing; newcomers should take notice that this thread is meant for open discussion only of matters like those above, not just anything you like -- we'll have a thread on Friday for that, as usual.
Does this count as historiography?
When revisionist views on a historical subject become accepted in the mainstream, does it end up being called the orthodox view, or is it still called revisionist?
