Research Abstract |
This study problematizes the collectivization of history with the development of the modern nation states and globalization, and illustrates the significance of the recognition of history from personal viewpoints in terms of the relationship between history and language, history and visuals, and the cultural approach to historical studies recently regarded as important themes by historians. It argues for the importance of doing history in accordance with the beliefs held by ordinary people in their daily lives, in other words, history in public places, that have been underestimated in comparison with a history in academic places constructed by professional historians.
