Keith Jenkins

Keith Jenkins is a British historiographer who, aligning with post-modern historiographers like Hayden White, posits that any historian's output should be understood as a narrative. His perspective suggests that a historical work reflects as much about the historian's worldview and ideological stances as it does about past events. Consequently, different historians will inevitably ascribe varied meanings to the same historical occurrences. Jenkins's approach emphasizes that history is always an interpretation, making the author's own lens crucial to understanding their account.
