요약	Serial history, histoire serielle, is the historical method that takes as its object not the unique event but the series: a long, homogeneous sequence of comparable facts, such as grain prices, baptisms, burials, marriages, notarial acts, or wages, recorded at regular intervals. Theorized above all by Francois Furet and practiced by Pierre Chaunu, Ernest Labrousse, and others in the orbit of the Annales school, it grew from Fernand Braudel's call to attend to the slow rhythms of history and from the conviction that the proper data of history are repeated, measurable facts rather than singular happenings. By constructing such series and analyzing their movements, trends, cycles, and fluctuations, the serial historian reconstructs the economic and demographic structures and conjunctures within which events occur. The decisive methodological requirement is homogeneity: the units must be defined and measured consistently across the whole span, so that change in the numbers reflects change in reality rather than in the recording.	Longue duree analysis is the signature method of Fernand Braudel and the Annales school, organizing historical inquiry around the deep, slow-moving structures that shape human possibility across centuries rather than the rapid succession of political events. Braudel famously distinguished three temporalities: the near-immobile time of geography and environment (the longue duree), the medium-rhythm time of economic and social cycles (the conjoncture), and the fast, deceptive time of events (l'histoire evenementielle). The longue duree foregrounds mountains, seas, climate, trade routes, demographic regimes, and collective mentalities as the durable scaffolding within which short-term action unfolds. By privileging structures that change so slowly they appear almost static, the method reorients explanation away from kings and battles toward the material and mental constraints that condition entire civilizations. It demands sources and chronologies measured in centuries, treating the present as a thin film atop vast geological and cultural sediment.
