Henri Berr

Henri Berr (31 January 1863, Lunéville – 19 November 1954, Paris) was a French philosopher and ''lycée'' teacher, known as the founder of the journal ''Revue de synthèse''. He is credited with moving the centre of gravity of the study of history in France, in accordance with his ideas on "synthesis". Despite the lack of recognition of his concepts by the academic establishment of the time, and its adverse effect on his own career, he had a large impact on the younger generation of French historians. He is considered to have anticipated significant aspects of the later Annales School. Provided by Wikipedia
