A note in the margins

Marginalium

My commentary on something from elsewhere on the web.

All History Is Revisionist History. A useful reminder.

many people are … offended to learn that at least some of what they were taught early in life as “history” is no longer fully accepted by historians and is instead taught in different ways. Like all humans, families, peoples, and nations—like many historians, too—they want to believe what they learned when young, especially since it long served as an adhesive of their identity.
