    History

    Historians have different perspectives on what history is: Edward Carr saw it as what historians make of it, Robin George as historians reenacting past thoughts, and Michael Oakeshott as historians' experiences. Greeks saw it as stories of knowledge from investigation, Germans as past events or struggles. History is generally defined as humanity's chronological record of significant events. The Filipino term "kasaysayan" means a meaningful narrative, referring to both past events and their significance. There are few usable materials left for historians because governments have seized many resources like antiquities and placed them in museums, and over time historians have studied and exploited most accessible historical resources.

    Instructions

    Read the questions carefully and give what is asked. Write your answer on the spaces provided.
    1. Define “History” based from the various perspectives given by historians.
     Edward Hellett Carr – history what historian makes
     Robin George – re-anactment in the historian’s mind of the thought whose history he is
    studying.
     Michael Joseph Oakeshott – history is the historian’s experience
     Greeks – history as “historia” which means “story”, also means knowledge acquired by
    investigation.
     German – “geschicht” meaning event or struggle.
     Defined as the past of humanity. It is a chronological record of significant events.

    2. Why is the Filipino term for history “Kasaysayan”?


     Ang kasaysayan ay isang salaysay na may saysay para sa sinasalaysayang grupo ng tao”.
    “Kasaysayan” is; therefore, a “salaysay na may saysay” or meaningful narrative.
     Kasaysayan. It simply means "history," to put it briefly and simply. However, if you dig a
    little deeper, the word's definition informs you more than just what happened in the
    past. It could also be related to the significance of the past. The word "saysay" that
    stands there literally means "importance" or "meaning." So I think that when you say
    "kasaysayan," you're referring to both the events themselves and their significance and
    meaning.

    3. Explain how there are so little usable materials left to historians to use.
     Due to the government's seizure and placement of several resources in museums,
    including antiquities and weaponry, there are now fewer available resources.
     The three main categories of sources are primary, secondary, and tertiary. Poems,
    books, articles, extracts, dictionaries, periodicals, etc. are some examples.
     As more historians have conducted their studies and exploited the historical resources
    accessible over time, more can no longer be added.
