1 This description is not accepted by the historians in question, who rightly emphasize the individuality and distinctiveness of their several approaches to the subject. Yet in their analysis and substantive conclusions probably they have enough in common to justify their being treated as a ‘school’. However, the term is used in this article more as a convenient shorthand than as a tightly defined academic category.
