520 2 _aTake a fresh look at history through the eyes of the world's major historians and philosophers. From Augustine to Karl Marx, history's sharpest minds search for the true meaning of history.
520 0 _aIs history constantly repeating itself, or is civilization evolving toward a final resolution? It depends on whom you ask. The meaning of history is a concise yet absorbing look at the meaning of history as interpreted by major historians and philosophers including Immanuel Kant, Georg Hegel, and the often misunderstood Karl Marx. By examining their diverse and sometimes provocative approaches, this book draws challenging conclusions about where humanity has been ... and where it is heading. This book explores not just the facts of history but also the personalities and purposes of the people and events that shaped it. Starting in the New Testament and continuing through until today, the meaning of history will forever change the way you look at history and your place in it.
