The readings familiarize the reader with conceptual history and its relationship with global history, looking at transfers between nations and languages as well as the ways in which world-views are created and transported through language. \u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePart One: Classical Texts\u003c\/b\u003e presents the three foundational texts for conceptual history, giving the reader a grasp of the origins of the discipline. \u003cb\u003ePart Two: Challenges\u003c\/b\u003e focuses on critiques of the approach and explores their ongoing relevance today. \u003cb\u003ePart Three: Translations of Concepts\u003c\/b\u003e provides examples of conceptual history in practice, via case studies of historical research with a global scope.
