大歷史(Big History)是一個新興學術領域,探索從宇宙大爆炸到現代的歷史。它通過包括科學、人文等多種學科的跨學科方法來檢視長遠的時間框架,[1][2][3][4][5] 並在更大的背景之下探討人類存在的意義。[6] 它整合宇宙、地球、生命和人類的研究,使用經驗,證據來探索因果關係,[7][8] 它被講授於大學[9] 和中學[10] 經常使用基於網路的互動式專題來介紹。[10] 此運動涉及澳大利亞麥考瑞大學之歷史學家大衛·克利斯汀,他創造了「大的歷史」這個詞,[7][9][11] 並且是由一個「學者的不尋常聯盟」所成就。[2]
一個「大歷史」的早期例子發現於約翰·肯尼迪在萊斯大學的着名演講,他將50,000年的人類歷史濃縮為半個世紀來講解。[12] 一些歷史學家表示對「科學歷史」表示懷疑,並認為「大歷史」之宣稱沒有獨創性。[13]
