Against “History” in much of any larger sense – which we unaware young were in a time and place of – the priorities, interests, necessities, goals,… of our daily lives and minds were so present and so bounded inside our time*, that what we were unsuccessfully presented as “history” was so foreign to our lives to much engage our persons or interests.
In other words, it was enough for us just to live and strive inside our time and place.
