Historiographical school

The historiographical school refers to groups of historians who share a common approach or perspective on interpreting history. Instead of just studying past events, they focus on how history is written and understood, emphasizing specific methods, philosophies, or themes. For example, some schools might prioritize economic factors, while others focus on cultural or political influences. These schools help us see that history isn’t a single, fixed story but a collection of varied interpretations shaped by different ideas and contexts over time.
