Description

I can’t actually remember a time when Genghis Khan was referred to as nothing but a barbarian. Even when I was very young, the impression I got was that he was one of the great empire-builders, a Julius Caesar of the east. Funnily enough, the only historical figure I can think of that’s had a complete one-eighty turn is Napleon. When I was growing up, he was a great man; these days, he seems to more be seen as a power-mad warmonger. (not that both those things can’t be true at once, of course) Dacianism is a Romanian pseudohistorical current that attempts to attribute far more influence over European and world history to the Dacians than that which they actually enjoyed. [40] Dacianist historiography claims that the Dacians held primacy over all other civilizations, including the Romans; [41] that the Dacian language was the origin of Latin and all other languages, such as Hindi and Babylonian; [42] and sometimes that the Zalmoxis cult has structural links to Christianity. [43] Dacianism was most prevalent in National Communist Romania, as the Ceaușescu regime portrayed the Dacians as insurgents defying an "imperialist" Rome; the Communist Party had formally attached "protochronism", as Dacianism was known, to Marxist ideology by 1974. [44] Historical falsification [ edit ] Geoffrey of Monmouth's History of the Kings of Britain, a scene from which is shown in this fifteenth-century illumination, was a popular work of pseudohistory during the Middle Ages.

In recent years, historians and experts have been coming forward to reveal the true stories around some of America's biggest historical events. Robert Todd Carroll has developed a list of criteria to identify pseudo-historic works. He states that:

Is neither critical nor skeptical in its reading of ancient historians, taking their claims at face value and ignoring empirical or logical evidence contrary to the claims of the ancients Incidentally I am the proud possessor of two small bits of furniture that a ‘kinsman’ of mine apparently looted from the building.

Gürpınar 2016, p.234. "Maintaining that 'the best defence is a good offence', the new strategy involved accusing Armenians in response for perpetrating genocide against the Turks. The violence committed by the Armenian committees under the Russian occupation of Eastern Anatolia and massacring of tens of thousands of Muslims (Turks and Kurds) in revenge killings in 1916–17 was extravagantly displayed, magnified and decontextualized." harvnb error: no target: CITEREFGürpınar2016 ( help)

The prices continued to fluctuate with supply and demand andthe cost of eggs continued to rise steadily in the years following the 1916 boycotts. 9. World War One Fake NewsI agree, from the article it seems like this book is just an interpretation of certain historical facts aimed at the gerneral public who may or may not know them.. the “lies” it contains may well be revelations for some people. But you are a serious and profound historian who should perhaps not get entangled with the nonsense of people such as this individual.
