Ranke first applied to medieval and modern history the critical principles which Niebuhr had established for ancient history. He thereby set up novel standards of scholarship which have since become accepted by historians of every nation... Ranke expounded these rules in this book, which forms an appendix to his first book "Histories of the German People from 1494 to 1514".
From the library of Swedish antiquarian bookdealer Björn Löwendahl (1941-2013).
