Return to History 8 Historiography Manual Assignments

The second reason history is important is that the past causes the present. History is inescapable because the present becomes the past. ["The present hardly exists, after all-it becomes the past even as it happens. A tricky medium, time - and central to the concerns of fiction." -Penelope Lively][1] By studying history, we can learn why something is happening today.
