why we read history
This year in class VI you will study History along with some other subjects History is considered a part of social science. Sociology helps us to understand the working of our social world. Sociology tells us about many aspects of life; In addition to history, about geography, about the running of the economy and about the system of social and political life, other subjects of social science often tell only about the world of today. History tells how today's world developed. It tells us about the past of the present.
We get used to the surroundings of the society we live in. We take for granted that the world has always been like this. We forget that life was not always what it seems to us today. For example can you imagine a world where there is no fire? What would it be like to live in a world where agriculture had not been invented? Or what would life have been like in those days when people used to travel long distances but there were no roads or trains? History can lead us to those pasts.
History in this form is an exciting journey. This journey takes you across time and world. It takes us to another world in another era when people's lives were different. Their economy and society, their beliefs and beliefs, their food and clothing, their homes and settlements, their arts and crafts—everything was different. History can open the doors of such a world.
You can shrug your shoulders and say 'Why are we bothered about past things that are no more, pasts that have passed'.
But history is not just about yesterday. It's also about today. The world we are in today has been created by the people who came before us, the joys and sorrows of their lives, their efforts to deal with the problems of their era, their discoveries and inventions, in the fabric of these, human society changed. Often these changes were so slow and minor that the people of that era were not even aware of it. Later, when we look at the past, when we read history, we get an idea. How did these changes come about? Only then can we see the effect of gradual changes over a long period of time. By reading history, we can understand that the modern world is the result of changes taking place over many centuries.
The book you will read this year will take us back to the most ancient pasts. In the next two years this journey of yours will pass through subsequent periods. In this book you will not only read about the kings and queens, their victories and policies. You will read about hunters and farmers, about craftsmen and traders, you will know about fire, about the invention of iron, how wheat and paddy began to be cultivated, when were villages and cities settled? You will also read about pilgrims and saints, buildings and paintings, religions and beliefs, you will find that history is not just biographies of great people. History is also about the lives and activities of ordinary women, men and children. History is not just about political events, but it is about everything that is happening in the society.
This book will help you to understand how historians come to know about the past. Like some detectives, historians study the clues and marks left by the occupants of ancient times. Every relic of the past—stone tools, plant remains, bones, written materials and pictures, ornaments and tools, inscriptions and coins, buildings and statues, utensils can tell us about the old times. Historians and archaeologists study these sources and try to understand them. Many such sources will be shown in this book and at the same time you will be able to find out how historians evaluate them.
But we do not study history just to understand the past. History also helps us to develop certain abilities and skills. One has to learn new ways to cope with the world of the past, to understand the people of a world whose lives were different from ours. When we do this we have to open our mind and step out of the small world of the present. It is a beginning to understand other people's actions and ways of thinking. It can be an educative and enriching experience for us. So, before you shrug your shoulders, ask yourself a question Do I want to know who I am? Do I want to understand how society works? Do I want to know the world I am in? If you want, you will need to know how our society evolved and how our pasts shaped our present.
