Lesson 1: Introduction to History/
Why Study History
What is History for:
“ Why Study History?” by Peter Stearns (1998)
“History is in fact very useful, actually

indispensable, but the products of historical
study are less tangible, sometimes less
immediate, than those that stem from some
other disciplines.”
“The contribution of history is perspective.
This is no small matter.
It is only too easy and tempting for each

generation (especially the more sensitive
members of each generation) to see the tests and
troubles of its own time as unique.
For many, what is past is past, what matters

is now and sometimes later.”

History as defined by Historians
 Thus, the best and most concise definition of
history is:
The bodies of knowledge about the past

produced by historians, together with
everything that is involved in the production,
communication of, and teaching about that
knowledge.
https://www.valdosta.edu/history/documents/what-is-
history.pdf
History as defined by Scholars
 History is the study of the human past as it is
described in written documents left behind by
humans.
 The past, with all of its complicated choices
and events, participants dead

and history told, is what the general public
perceives to be the immutable bedrock on
which historians and archaeologists stand.
 https://archives.history.ac.uk/history-in-focus/
Whatishistory/marwick1.html1 Oct 2019
History as defined by Philosophers
Philosophy of History:

History is the study of the past in all its forms. ...
Second, as is the case with the other area-

studies, philosophy of history investigates problems
that are unique to its subject matter.
History examines not what things are so much as

how they came to be.
Simply:
“ History tries to avoid repetition of the past
mistakes.”
Yet, history repeats itself.
“ Experiences are the best teachers!”
The validity and authenticity of sources are of

outmost important.
And so, just saying:
Those who do not know HISTORY are doomed
to repeat IT.
Those who do can IMPROVE.
