Description

Leopold von Ranke (1795-1886) was a German historian of the 19th century, and frequently considered one of the founders of modern source-based history. He set the tone for much of later historical writing, introducing such ideas as reliance on primary sources (Empiricism), an emphasis on narrative history and especially international politics (Aussenpolitik). Ranke is also considered a founding father of Historism. In 1814, he entered the University of Leipzig, where his subjects were Classics and Lutheran theology. At Leipzig, he became an expert in philology and translation of the ancient authors into German. Beginning with his first book in 1824, the Geschichte der Romanischen und Germanischen Volker von 1494 bis 1514 (History of the Latin and Teutonic Peoples From 1494 to 1514), Ranke used an unusually wide variety of sources for a historian of the age. Following the success of Geschichte der Romanischen und Germanischen Volker Von 1494 bis 1514, Ranke was given a position in the University of Berlin. Also during his time in Berlin, Ranke became the first historian to utilise the forty-seven volumes that comprised the diplomatic archives of Venice from the 16th and 17th centuries.
