Product Description

“Along with its importance in the sphere of administration, the role of archives as the raw material of historical research is uniquely important. Accordingly, mere preservation of archives is understood today only as a negative virtue, and making the records already preserved available for research under certain conditions, has become a sine qua non-service of an archival institution. Archives are the life-blood of administrative as well as historical research. Without archives the proper understanding of the past is at the mercy of impulse and prejudice, lacking in balance and continuity. Wonderful is the Science of Archives, wonderful is the record, as its evidence is unshakable.
