ANALYTICAL STUDY OF LITERARY NATURE OF HISTORICAL NARRATIVE IN THE LIGHT OF JORN RUSEN AND DAVID CARR'S THEORETICAL DISCUSSIONS

Abstract

In the late 20th century, a significant change occurred in the historical perception of historians. This change involved the intensive utilization of literary resources in historical studies, leading historians to accept the collaboration between history and literature. They found it challenging to ignore that when they narrate events, the narration of events follows the rules of "Narrative" and "Narrative" is a linguistic method of creating meaning. German historian Jorn Rusen (1938) has discussed the literary nature of historical narrative in his book History, Narration, Interpretation, Orientation. Rusen has talked about the Subjective description of objective facts in historical narratives. He has also described four types of historical narrative: Traditional, exemplary, critical, and genetic. While possessing distinct characteristics, these narratives do not mutually annul one another; rather, they share an enduring interconnection. Throughout the historical continuum, these four narratives converge, collectively offering a historical framework for practical life's evolution. It is asserted that the presence of imagination in depicting historical facts is crucial, emphasizing a shift in modern historical studies away from traditional, objective approaches. Contemporary methods of historians prioritize subjectivity in historical narratives. This article aims to explore the relationship between history and literature because the current principles of shaping historical consciousness are inherently aesthetic and linguistic.
