"If you don't know history, then you don't know anything

History
1 answer:
viva [34]2 years ago

Answer and Explanation:

Rephrasing of the quote:

When we do not know about our past, we fail to understand our present and how we are connected to the rest of the world.

Explanation of the quote:

Knowing our history means we have a solid foundation upon which we can build our present and, consequently, our future. We can learn from past mistakes and repeat past successes. Ignoring our history means ignoring what makes us who we are. This ignorance prevents us from understanding how the world functions, and how we function in the world.

Description of the author:

Answer and Explanation:

1. Because Britain had tyrannical positions in relation to America. He claimed that Britain did not allow America to be represented in parliament so that it was possible to exploit Americans intensively, in addition to using America's work to finance wars and pay Britain's own debts.

2. Because he believed that America was in a position to be bigger and more powerful than England. He affirmed that this was a wish of God, otherwise God would not have given the Americans a territory so much bigger and richer than that of England.

3. Paine advocated that the new independent states assume a republican and federalist government, as he believed that this type of government would promote freedom, equality and honesty among its citizens. Furthermore, he believed that the government established in the colonies should be simple, the simpler, the more difficult to promote disorder.

4. Because the text written by Paine had an extremely simple, direct and very objective language that would go to the point and did not cover complicated academic concepts, which allowed absolutely the entire population to understand what he was talking about. This makes me "fired up" because a single text managed to move the entire nation.

5. I would not change anything in Paine's text, because I believe that everything that was covered in it and the way it was written was perfect for the goals that Paine wanted to achieve. It is exactly this that makes this text debated and promoted until today and it is not correct to modify something of such specificity and success.
