Hayden White

According to Wikipedia, Hayden White is "an historian in the tradition of literary criticism, perhaps most famous for his work Metahistory: The Historical Imagination in Nineteenth-Century Europe (1973). He is currently professor emeritus at the University of California, Santa Cruz, and professor of comparative literature at Stanford University."

I am looking forward to finding out more about this man and what he has lent to the field of literary criticism.
