Educational stuff, should you be interested.

The past -even if we could be confident of interpreting it with high accuracy-rarely offers direct lessons. To claim that kind of relevance is to deceive oneself. But history as the educated memory of what has gone before is a resource not to be abandoned lightly...the present always has a past dimension, which is better to acknowledge than to ignore or deny.
