Sinopsis

By studying history, though, we empower ourselves to challenge received wisdom and create knowledge of our own. Sometimes doing history from below (rather than above) is as simple as broadening the scope of your evidence beyond the relatively controllable published record. It might mean deep dives into personal diaries, letters, newspapers, pop and material culture, archeological evidence, or the introduction of a variety of methodological approaches to oft-studied subjects.Further Readings/References:Bertolt BrechtLeonard Read’s “I, Pencil,”  See acast.com/privacy for privacy and opt-out information.
