Uses of the Past, The
profiles of former societies
A useful discussion of how former societies and our own, use the writings of the historians of their societies to express their own set of virtues. Interesting but not lively reading. It does presuppose an acquaintance with the surviving sources.
WASP view of history which is silly to read and embarrassing to think this was considered intellectually expansive. The whole point of the world was for the Reformation to happen and thus assert the right of all men to religious freedom. Then the Enlightenment zig zagging until America and its "Holy Experiment" [William Penn] frees itself from European English colonialism. Well intentioned, but very intellectually crude.
