Narratives of democracy
Historians have long been aware of the power of narratives; but they have been hesitant to analyse the production of national narratives of democracy, in which their own profession played an important role.

And, indeed, this acceding to legibility constitutes a specific critical point in the movement at their interior. Every present day is determined by the images that are synchronic with it: each is the now of a particular recognizability. In it, truth is charged the bursting point with time. -Walter B…
