Abstract
Historiography is one of the youngest branches of historical sciences, concerned with the critical reflection of historical texts, as well as with the thought, discourse, style, method, and performance of historians. So far, historiography in Iran has been understood in various forms, causing many concerns and risks. Critical reflection on the research shows that the conceptual dualities of "vision and method" and "historiography and conception of history" have been mainly used as analytical frameworks in these studies. However, the problem is that the same terms have different meanings, which has confused researchers in the field. This article has tried to criticise the existing dualities and to show how these terms are used in some research works . It has revealed some theoretical and practical confusions and answers the question: is it possible to create a new methodological framework in this direction? In order to get out of the current confusion, the article concludes that a new plan must be elaborated within the framework of "knowledge of historiography" and its main branches, namely "historianology" and "historical textology". Finally, the article proposes three research formats: "historian-centred," "text-oriented," and "combined" approaches, and speaks of the conceptual-theoretical approaches of the philosophy of history and the theoretical philosophy of history as a framework for research in this science.
