Overview
History is a critical and analytical method of inquiry into our collective past based on our cumulative experience, informed understanding, and careful judgment. It teaches us to look beyond appearance, to evaluate something with clarity and disinterest, to discover and investigate all the causes of an event and evaluate their relative importance. The program is offered by Mount Holyoke College.
History teaches how to:
- discern the relationship between cause and effect
- to analyze motives
- to determine agency and assign responsibility
- to understand change over time.
These general habits of sorting through the past allow us to appreciate the profound differences between ourselves and others and to imagine (and to some degree experience) the world as men and women have in times now lost and in places we shall never see.
