Title 4. How do historians and human scientists give knowledge meaning…

- - - - WW2
        
        The Germans were not prepared for the harsh winter conditions in the USSR => they lost the battle
  - - - Life and Death on Mt. Everest by Sherry Ortner
        
        Mt. Everest as a sacred symbol for indigineous society => it built their culture, rituals etc.
        
        For people outside of this group it perceived as an ordinary mountein => however, storytelling provides us with a new perspective/meaning of this object
- - - - All knowledge that they provide is mostly connected with their past experiences and emotions

        Because knowledge is shared through social media, it might change its meaning => now there are more than one (oral) type of spreading the knowledge e.g. sound, video
        
        Some people are getting know with new knowledge
        
        New perspectives are opening
        
        There are could be some biases
        
        Some knowledge still could be misinterpreted or lost
        
        Usually, there is no punishment for adding your own meaning to the knowledge
  - - - Try to provide a fair overall repesentation of the central subject of their narratives
        
        Aleksandr Solzhenitsyn (Russian novelist, philosopher, historian, short story writer and political prisoner)
        
        He represented an opposing view towards number of attributes of Soviet power in his works => He was arrested
        
        Not all people were ready to accept his opinion (even if they wanted to, they could not) because of the active propaganda of communism
        
        Could be also affected by the personal experience of the narrative
        
        Punishment for adding his own meaning to the knowledge
