In chapter three of Burke he describes the second generation of the Annales school and begins to speak about Braudel and his view on the Mediterranean and King Philip II. Braudel wanted to cover these events by a "total history" when looking at this total history he covered things such as the weather, social, political, and economic points of view. This then branched off into looking at history in a whole new different point of view.
Chapter four of Burke introduces you into the third generation of the Annales school which focuses on how the time that has changed the different views on history. It begins to explain that not only one person should study an event but many, not just men should study but women as well. I took that they want as many points of views as they possibly can get.
Is there a possibly way to cover every single thing about history?
is total history possible to obtain?
