Description
What is history? At some point in time, it was thought that it was a useless discipline, as if it
were only ornamental knowledge. Investigating about the recent or remote past is not a hobby, it is a practical activity that helps the individual and the community. But history can’t just tell people what they want to hear. The past is inert, fatal, something that cannot be reproduced.
The past does not exist but vestiges remain, remnants of actions, traces of the past that are
remembered with a current meaning, not always coinciding with what they had. In this book, Justo Serna makes a defense of the historian’s profession as a teacher and of history as a discipline, since the acquisition of a historical culture helps to know the kind of individuals we are or aspire to be.
