   - Instruction in world history in the so-called high schools is even today in   
   a very sorry condition. Few teachers understand that the study of history can   
   never be to learn historical dates and events by heart and recite them by   
   rote; that what matters    
   is not whether the child knows exactly when this battle or that was fought,   
   when a general was born, or even when a monarch (usually a very insignificant   
   one) came into the crown of his forefathers. No, by the living God, this is   
   very unimportant. To '   
   learn' history means to seek and find the forces which are the causes leading   
   to those effects which we subsequently perceive as historical events.
