D.M.Volodihin The two histories

Abstract: the article provides a detailed critique of the “new chronology” school which was presented on the “Culture” TV channel, as well as other representatives of “folk history”. The critique is based on the thesis of intellectual poverty of such pseudohistorians, as well as the factors in modern society which allow for pseudohistorical views to find a place in the modern culture and gain mass media coverage. The true goals of “folk-history” proponents is successful commercialization of historical research. It is quite obvious that their actions accelerate the forming of “diet history”, “bubblegum history” for the unthinking consumer.


Keywords:

history, folk-history, chronology, middle ages, Russia, Europe, Law, Crusades, Mongol-Tatar empire, Huns.
