This week, ending in March 31 2016:
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.
There was a thread over in r/badhistory about the Protestant Reformation and the printing press being the medium through which it advanced. It was ultimately decided that the post in question was not bad history as the issue wasn't settled.
Is that the case? What work is currently being done on this topic?
Edit: Sorry. Here's the thread I'm talking about.
What evidence is there for the phantom time hypothesis? Is it an assertion that can be taken seriously?
In light of the new evidence that historical personages are posting on Reddit, how do you think historiography of the ancient world will be changed? To what extent can these people be believed?
