Question

Which statement from the passage is an interpretation of historical facts?

Answer 1

Answer:

B. Eventually, the British pushed Washington across the Hudson River into New Jersey.

Explanation:

Most historians who, from Leopold von Ranke (1795-1886), laid the foundations of the historical profession were very clear, whether they were historicists in Germany or empirical historians in Britain. A historical fact was something that had happened in the past and that had left its mark on documents so that they could be rebuilt by the historian. That empirical and scientific history had found its basic principles since the end of the 19th century: the rigorous examination of historical evidence, proven by an impartial investigation free of “a priori” beliefs and prejudices; and an inductive method of reasoning, from the particular to the general.
