  • Voltaire pointed out that history is a pack of tricks we play upon the dead.
  • the present can and does influence our knowledge of the past because past events do not any longer exist anywhere except in mind of the historian, who has now become both subject and object.
  • Some people have gone so far as to say that the closest we can get to what actually happened is to believe what the records say actually happened.
  • ...3 more annotations...
  • Historical thought about the past and all history, consequently, is the history of thought.
  • We can also check one person’s version of what actually happened by comparing it with that of another person or by examining all the relevant sources ourselves.
  • History is not a branch of literature, it is a science.
