Abstract
This chapter provides an in-depth analysis of narrativist philosophy of historiography. The two philosophers whose thinking was already introduced in the previous chapter are discussed in detail here: Hayden White and Frank Ankersmit. I hope to be able to show that despite some differences, they share a certain core philosophy between them.
