History
“It is in the present that we live, and it is our present condition, the very isolation and detachment of our self-consciousness, that has for the first time rendered possible that contemplation of the past, and its re-enactment in imagination, that is called ‘history.’” - Barfield, O., 1979. Modern Idolatry: The Sin of Literalness. In History, Guilt, and Habit. Wesleyan University Press, pp. 33–64.

Thank you so much for your comment. Unfortunately, some people have tried to add comments to sell things and, moreover, have nothing to do with the post. I am sure you would never do that, but to ensure that your comment is relevant, it will be reviewed by a human before appearing on the blog.
