"It is the first thorough semiological analysis of historical discourse, and it is the most original contribution to historiographical theory since Paul Ricoeur's "Time and Narrative."

Literary critics and theorists and social scientists as well will have to come to terms with the uncomfortable truths revealed in this book.
