"For some people, history is simply what your wife looks good standing in front of. Itâ€™s whatâ€™s cast in bronze, or framed in sepia tones, or acted out with wax dummies and period furniture. It takes place in glass bubbles filled with water and chunks of plastic snow; itâ€™s stamped on souvenir pencils and summarized in reprint newspapers. History nowadays is recorded in memorabilia. If you canâ€™t purchase a shopping bag that alludes to something, people wonâ€™t believe it ever happened."
