Imagine that you are watching a parade through a knothole in a fence. All that
you can see of the parade is happening right in front of the knothole.
Sometimes you cannot even see what is going on because other spectators
are walking in front of the knothole, blocking your view. Watching a parade in
this way would be frustrating.
Now, imagine watching the same parade from a balcony. From there, you can
see the entire parade. You can see what floats have gone by, which ones are
passing by now, and which ones will be coming up next. The mood from the
balcony is much more festive. You cheer as each float goes by. You are
excited to be attending the parade.
In these two scenarios, the parade itself did not change. What really changed
was your point of view. Sometimes studying history can seem like looking through a knothole in a fence. And like your
opinion of the parade, opinions and interpretations of historical events can also change. It all depends on our point of
view.
