Solution
- The Annales School was a French school of historical writing founded in the 1920s by Marc Bloch and Lucien Febvre.
- It focused on studying long-term social, economic, and cultural structures rather than just political events or great leaders.
- The historians of this school emphasized the role of geography, environment, and everyday life in shaping history.
- It introduced a new approach called “total history,” which combined insights from sociology, geography, economics, and anthropology.
- One of its leading historians later was Fernand Braudel, who wrote about the Mediterranean world in terms of long-term social and economic patterns.
