Abstract: Abstract Extensive literature exists on the philosophy of history; for a thorough and insightful overview, see Aviezer Tucker’s Companion to the Philosophy of History and Historiography [1]. It is said that history is a narrative of the past [2, 3]. Therefore, in order to understand what history is, we must first understand what narrative is. One of the definitions of a narrative is two or more sentences that share a temporal relationship and can be interpreted in several, often conflicting, ways.
