Abstract

Abstract This article presents the changes in history education that bring school history closer to public history and discusses the potential of a textbook as a tool for fostering public history. The analysis of the chapters dealing with the Second World War from the Polish–German history textbook, Europe – Our History, provides arguments in support of the claim that history education may become history for the public – by engaging pupils, not just providing them with knowledge; with the public – by letting the pupils reflect on the lesson content, not take it for granted; about the public – by focusing on ordinary people’s fates, not on political and military operations; and by the public – by referring extensively to people’s memories and letting primary sources speak for themselves, not just illustrate the historiographical narrative.
从波兰-德国历史教科书看历史教育中的公共历史转向
摘要本文介绍了历史教育的变化,使学校历史更接近公共历史,并讨论了教科书作为培养公共历史工具的潜力。波兰-德国历史教科书《欧洲-我们的历史》中关于第二次世界大战的章节的分析,为支持历史教育可以成为公众的历史的说法提供了论据——通过让学生参与进来,而不仅仅是为他们提供知识;与公众——让学生反思课程内容,而不是想当然;关注公众——关注普通人的命运,而不是政治和军事行动;以及公众——通过广泛引用人们的记忆,让主要来源为自己说话,而不仅仅是说明历史叙事。
