The "interlinked network of events" that Ian Johnson called one way to "represent" history is actually the kind of network map that emerges when you name events (which includes time), pin them to locations, and give the locations names, too. After you've done all that, you can "tell history" by moving through the network in time and space at once. I will find you that paper. Woof.
