I would say almost never. History is only as objective as the evidence you have. Usually the evidence, beyond very general statements of fact are entirely dependent on when, who by, why and how it was recorded. So whilst historians can piece together their best attempt at an objective account of any event, it is quite possible for them to slightly or even very wrong.
William H. McGuffey
The maximum usually acknowledged historic methodologies include: Palaeography (have a look at of historic handwriting), diplomatics, the have a look at of documents, information and archives, chronology (organising the dates of beyond events), the have a look at of publications, epigraphy (have a look at of historic inscriptions).
this is a subjective question.everyone has his own needs and/or interests in history.what one needs to know most necessarily is about our follies,mistakes and ignorant acts we as a human race have committed.we should also know about noble deeds of the past.this should be done so as to guide ourselves in our present lives.the more you know the better.
Dante's concepts and images of heaven and hell are fundamentally informed by the teachings of the Catholic Church of his day and were published for readers who were Catholics. Chaucer was an astute sopcial observer and wrote "The Canterbury Tales" as the equivalent of todays docu-dramas. He described types of people he experienced in society around him. The backcloth, though, the actual pilgrimage on foot from London to Canterbury represents an activity that was indeed done in those days by social classes. To take pilgrimage to Canterbury was held in high esteem then in basically the same way as for a Muslim to go on Hajj to Mecca is held today.
Historical narrative
To tell a compelling story about history in written form, historians can use narrative techniques such as creating a strong storyline, incorporating personal anecdotes or perspectives, and focusing on key events or characters to keep readers engaged. They should also strive to make connections between past events and current themes or issues to help readers relate to the material. Additionally, utilizing descriptive language, vivid imagery, and well-researched facts can enhance the storytelling experience and evoke emotions in readers.
With history already well written up, the current mass of people doing historical studies at university and then trying to write something as theses, papers and publications, and finding the ground well covered, these modern historians have to cook up new versions, mostly distortions but occasionally with new insight, to publish and sell to modern readers.
The major Roman historians, Livy, Suetonius and Tacitus are so familiar to readers of Latin literature, that we may fail to notice the odd configuration of the materials which give us our knowledge of history of the Roman period. :)
An author can hook readers by starting with an engaging opening line or by introducing a compelling conflict or mystery that draws readers in. Using vivid imagery, strong emotions, or creating a sense of intrigue can also captivate readers and entice them to continue reading.
Engaging characters, unpredictable plot twists, vivid settings, and underlying themes are elements that can keep readers interested in a fictional book. Additionally, well-developed relationships between characters, compelling conflicts, and thought-provoking moral dilemmas can also contribute to maintaining interest in the story.
