What Is History?

Carr emphasizes the subjective nature of history and the historian's role in shaping it. Do contemporary historians still see their work as an act of interpretation or as objective truth?

It made me wonder how we can trust historical accounts when they're inherently shaped by perspective. How do you navigate the balance between fact and narrative?

His perspective shifts the focus from history as a static record to an ongoing conversation. I'm curious what motivated that framing and how it influences our understanding of historical truth.
