Burke Chapter Four

The Third Generation at the Annales school came after the retirement of Braudel from the presidency of the Sixth section in 1972.  Jacques Le Goff took over the presidency.  It was during this time that the Annales school had its first woman among its members, Christiane Klapisch, a historian of the family unit during the Middle Ages and the Renaissance.  The Third Generation interests in psychohistory and history of ideologies and mentalities (including Anthropology) was also a major shift.  The Annales school had also seen a return to the historical narrative.  The journal experienced larger print runs and wider distribution.
