History is and should be a science..

History is not the accumulation of events of every kind which happened in the past. It is the science of human societies..

History is no easy science; its subject, human society, is inifinitely complex..

History studies not just facts and institutions, its real subject is the human spirit..

Do not applaud me. It is not I who speaks to you, but history which speaks through my mouth. Fustel de.
