Neither Ranke nor Gibbon invented the citational or literary footnote; Grafton slogs back through time in search of antecedents.
Writing in 1824, Ranke conjured a memorable image of the modern critical historian confronted by, and determined to derive order from, the boundless quantities of available source material:
An Egyptian spell contains this gibberish: edera edesana, ederagaha edesana, marmu edesana, emui edesana, degejana edesana, degabana edesana . Another one: paparuka paparaka pararura . ( Ägypten and Ägyptisches Leben , A. Erman and H. Ranke, pp. 406-407).
Ranke, with his avowed intention to show history wie es eigentlich gewesen --how it really was--and with his ambition to put the study of history on a scientific footing, doubtless had a more pervasive influence on the formal output of generations of historians.
Grafton's book begins by considering the historians Edward Gibbon and Leopold von Ranke, who in their own ways raised the historical footnote to a level of high art both as a citational resource and a rhetorical outlet.
