The book is split into five parts, spanning views of history from Herodotus in the Greco-Roman times through the advent and ascendency of Christianity, the Enlightenment, and the 19th Century. Collingwood considered history a science of human affairs mingled with psychology. He argues that to understand the past, the historian must use their "historical imagination" to recreate the thought process of the actors.

The Victorian Era. The Age of Enlightenment. The post-9/11 years. We are accustomed to demarcating history, fencing off one period from the next. But societies have not always operated in this way.

One of the masterpieces of classical literature, the "Histories" describes how a small and quarrelsome band of Greek city states united to repel the might of the Persian empire. But while this epic struggle forms the core of his work, Herodotus' natural curiosity frequently gives rise to colorful digressions - a description of the natural wonders of Egypt; an account of European lake-dwellers; and far-fetched accounts of dog-headed men and gold-digging ants. With its kaleidoscopic blend of fact and legend, the "Histories" offers a compelling Greek view of the world of the fifth century BC.

Ler a obra de Antonil tem muito de ler um jornal ou guia – mas as notícias e os cenários são do início do século XVIII. Neste excerto, destacam-se as minas de ouro e todo seu entorno: a qualidade do metal, as gentes, a corrupção e a política do quinto. Pitoresco demais, o texto fala da mineração em Curitiba e no Pico do Jaraguá, de uma pepita do tamanho de uma língua de boi e da travessia da Serra da "Amantiqueira".

This story is a chronicle of the year 1968 as seen through the eyes of the author while serving at Takhli Royal Thai Air Force Base in Thailand, supporting the air war in Vietnam.

You can't buy class, but you can buy tolerance for its absence."
