If you do not learn from your history you are doomed to repeat it?

Even as farce. Those who seek to draw imagined lessons from the past for mechanistic application in the present are as doomed to failure as those who ignore it. Story explains and informs, but the conditions of different times and places make each occurence unique.

Understanding why things are as they are is far more relevant than perceiving re-runs of dissimilar developments.

I cant really gove you an answer,but what I can give you is a way to a solution, that is you have to find the anglde that you relate to or peaks your interest. A good paper is one that people get drawn into because it reaches them ln some way.As for me WW11 to me, I think of the holocaust and the effect it had on the survivors, their families and those who stood by and did nothing until it was too late.
