Conceotual history, the revelation of ideological battel in history And understanding the new meaning of the text

"Conceptual history" is a relatively new theory and method that is influenced by the tradition of continental philosophy and new historicism. This theory and method, with its critique of traditional historicalism, emphasis on the "concept" and through the study of creation, the evolution and conception of concepts, one can represent ideological conflicts in a political structure. In this essay, after defining conceptual history, it attempts to address the role and role of this theory in continental philosophy by emphasizing the views of Reinhart Koselleck, the most renowned researcher in the field. In his seminal project, The conceptual history, Koselleck explores the concept, its differentiation with the word, and how concepts influence political events. He believes that without concepts, society as well as the political arena of action will not exist, and he believes that every concept in the system of thought has anti-concepts that can overcome it by having a specific meaning . On this basis, Koselleck puts anti-concepts against concepts and speaks of semantic battel that can justify and explain the efforts of political forces and groups to overcome a particular discourse. Conceptual history as a method is also attempted to discover the meaning behind the accumulated layers of time, among the points discussed in this paper. Since this paper aims to introduce the theory and method of conceptual history, the method used is described and can be useful for researchers in humanities.
