[QUOTE="Cornelia, post: 18330, member: 25"] [b]Ask away[/b] August, maybe for the first time, I don't agree with you. :P I believe history which you study in books can't be the whole truth: it's obviously filtered. I'm not speaking of conspiracies to tell us lies (which can happen anyway, as in dictatures), but of historicians (dunno in english, damn!). This is what they teach us in high schools here. You can't fully trust historicians, and our teachers show us examples of history written, say, by catholic writers or by laicists. They also explain how many historicians in the past wrote history in a way to please emperors (remember Virgilio with the story of Aeneas to please the emperor... Augustus? ;)). Of course, I'm not speaking of children in primary school, but in higher grade you MUST teach students to take history "cum grano salis". This will help them to think using their brains and will help them not to become sheeps. I believe that saying "true history could be known only if you experience it directly" is a responsible and wise suggestion. Unfortunately, it's an impossible task... :lol: [/QUOTE]
