dc.description.abstract"I believe, however, that our failure in history results to a considerable extent from our own curriculum and that it is a weakness resulting from our strength. Most of us concentrate on ideas which, by definition, are timeless and have no history; or we work on forms and techniques which, too, are, properly speaking, outside of history. We do not, by and large, pay much attention to the institutional realization of ideas which is the subject of history. I would not want us to change for I believe that what is needed today is the awareness of the timelessness of ideas. But I think we could complement our program with little difficulty so as to provide at least a number of students with an interest in and an understanding of history."en_US
