Abstract

Historical perspective as insight and historiography as method are the two basic elements in understanding history as social memory and using it. The spread of civilizations has always been directly related to their familiarity with history, and in this respect the level of historical knowledge of the leaders of each nation is a vital element. In this research, we try to show some aspects of Historical perspective and historiography of the Supreme Leader of the Revolution by using analytical-descriptive method and by case study of the book of a 250 years old person which is a collection of Ayatollah Khamenei's speeches about the history of Imamate. The findings of this study in two separate sections of Historical perspective and historiography indicate that His Holiness analyzes history with a monotheistic view, separates time periods and uses the method of doctrinal and strategic analysis of history. His method of historiography, in addition to having unique features, is also the consensus of Islamic scholars and historians.
