How important are dates
How important are dates
“History is certainly about changes that occur over time”.
i) History is synonymous with dates.
ii) We compare the past with the present.
iii) We continue to associate history with a string of dates.
iv) We study dates to find out the sequence of events and the significance of events.
Which Dates
The selection of date depends on the story of the past. Focusing on a particular set of events is important. By studying the dates reasons and consequences of events are understood in a better way.
How do we Periodise
James Mill divided Indian history into three periods: Hindu, Muslim and British. According to Mill, Only British rules, culture and laws could make Indians civilized. There are significant sources to study the periods of events and by studying different historical pieces of evidence a string of time periods can be formed.
What is colonial
When the subjugation of one country by another country leads to change in social, culture, economic and political sphere, it leads to colonization. British rule brought about changes in values and tastes, customs and practices.
