History is a composition of past events. It is real and honest. However, the materials used by historians (which are called sources) to study history are only records of history, so they need not to be absolutely true and unbiased. If a group of scholars were to evaluate a set of clues surrounding a play, they would mainly use texts and written records of the play and all these evidences are considered sources which therefore need to be carefully examined before put into use. To these scholars,…

has been anything I have learned throughout this semester in literally all of my classes, it is that we must learn History to keep it from repeating itself. Many critics say that there is nothing you can learn from History or that it is doomed to repeat itself. Personally, there is a choice, but it takes a lot of researching to be able to understand what needs to be altered so History does not repeat itself. I have walked through many steps of bouncing through topics, researching each one,…

private individual fit within the cold, public expanse of history? Gabriel Garcia Márquez’s One Hundred Years of Solitude and Orhan Pamuk’s Snow consider the relationship between individual identity and collective, historical tragedy,…

History and the past are two words that seem to go hand in hand. Unfortunately, when these words come up in conversation many people automatically reflect on their time in grade school when memorizing the capitals was the standard. The past though, is so much more than that, and the documented interviews contained within the pages of The Presense of the Past prove just that. Roy Rozenweig and David Thelen delve into the minds of Americans in an attempt to recognize how the public understands…

History hasn’t always been a struggle for historians, but with new scholars in the field every day, new issues come up. Now the problem of narrativization, moralization and what the hegemonic narrative in a story is are big concerns among historians and historiographers, no matter what the topic is. Many scholars have tried to solve these issues and alternatives were proposed with side by side histories for example. Although the principal way of representing the past today still is the…

As time goes on, our conceptions of the past tend to be distorted. This happens through many ways, such as misinterpretations of history, historical documents, and stories of the past. This is evident in nearly every book we studied, from Godric to The Wolf Hunt, to Inventing the Flat Earth. In this paper, I will show that no matter how hard a writer tries to stay true to the times of their novel, it is impossible to stay completely accurate to the time. This is because our modern views and…

Leonard Quart & Albert Auster (2011), they reveal that films have the ability to evoke the mood and tone of a society in a particular era.

By films, one means not merely documentaries, which obviously directly capture something of the reality of people’s lives and feelings, but also mainstream Hollywood commercial films. It is not only that these films sometimes convey and…

History plays a very important role in our world and continues to make a great impact in our world now and further down in the future. I view history as a strong significate example of the past events, people and diverse cultures that influenced the world in tremendous ways and developed new changes along the years. I believe not knowing history is similar to not knowing yourself, who you are, where you come from, where you’re going in life and why you became the person you are today. When they…
