ප්රවර්ගය fields of history in reference to the categories professional historians use to classify their broad areas of work within the overall
academic discipline of
history. Some of these categories (e.g. cultural history, social history, intellectual history) refer to historical method rather than specific topic of study, while others coincide or partially overlap with the practical classification of
history by topic. Articles in these categories should be about the disciplinary fields themselves (e.g.
Art history or
Women's history), NOT the subject matter of those fields (e.g.
History of art or
Women in history).
