human taste pallet. However, if you put the two flavors together the contrast heightens each one making two plain flavors come alive with body and savory substance. Like the concept of salted caramel, history and literature work on the same juxtaposed concept because to explore both the depths of history and literature you must contrast one with the understanding of the other. Steinbeck, a novelist who wrote prolific works like The Grapes of Rather and Of Mice and Men, has shown both fields the…

The way nations remember their past is extremely important for their future. Certainly there are a lot of different ways a society can remember crucial moments of its history.

With its emergence in the 19th century photography played a significant role during national conflicts in different countries and World War II.
