[QUOTE]Originally posted by Jay the Obscure: [QB] Something else... It�s been my experience that people like the myth of history rather than the reality of history. Since history is based on interpretation of events, often those who challenge commonly held myth history are viewed as revisionist historians come to destroy treasured traditions. Deeply held cherished traditions are hard to change. Culture, and the traditions it engenders, shape popular perceptions even when based on myth. I would argue that societal elites tend to use popular misconceptions of historical events to their advantage to harden class roles and to consolidate social and political power. My advice is don�t tear your hair out about it. [/QB][/QUOTE]
