«Un parcours d'historien» is the memoir of historian Pierre Goubert, published by Fayard in paperback (320 pages, in French).
Pierre Goubert reviews his life and times in these memoirs, from his childhood in Saumur during World War I to his career as a historian at the Sorbonne. He also evokes vanished settings: the Saumurois between the wars, the Beauvaisis of the seventeenth century, and teaching during the Third Republic.
The full title includes the subtitle 'Souvenirs 1915-1995'. The memoirs were originally published in 1996 and received the Prix Pierre Lafue that year.
For readers interested in twentieth-century French historiography and the lives of its leading figures.
Pierre Goubert was a French historian. A member of the Annales School, he is considered one of the founders of historical demography and modern rural history. He was a noted specialist on the 17th century, especially of the Ancien Régime societies and mentalities.
