The issue of the present research is shaped by examining the nature and dimensions of cultural history and proceeds with the fundamental question of what are the main intellectual actors of new cultural history, the epistemological grounds of its emergence, the postmodernist roots and the characteristics of this approach? What is certain is that new cultural history is a new method in which the historian changes his attention from “objective positions to intellectual representations”. In such an approach, a group of new sources and data - which historians had previously ignored - are presented, and studies based on them will lead to the discovery of hidden realities and new analyses of tradition and the past. Therefore, the subject or subject in “cultural history” is the same “intellectual representations”. The “cultural historian” is confronted with the “symbolic matter” and the “interpretation of the symbolic matter” throughout his work, unlike other historians - who are in search of historical objectivity. Whereas the social historian deals with objects rather than seeking the symbolic.
