Ici Paris

Henri Pirenne redactó este material en una prisión alemana durante la primera Guerra Mundial. Sin bibliotecas, privado de sus libros y notas, carente de elementos que le despejaran el camino, realizó un brillante esfuerzo de memoria y de concentración de pensamiento para reflexionar sobre sus conocimientos, sistematizarlos y recoger a grandes rasgos el proceso evolutivo de todo un periodo histórico de la vida humana.

Esta obra sigue los pasos de la Historia general de México, publicada por vez primera en 1976 bajo la dirección de Daniel Cosío Villegas, pero es a la vez una renovación completa de aquel proyecto original como resultado de los cambios sustanciales que ha sufrido el panorama historiográfico en los 35 años transcurridos desde la aparición de la Historia general. Los 24 autores que participan en la obra aportan, en 16 capítulos, una mirada equilibrada pero puesta al día para interpretar la historia mexicana.
