*Lemony Snicket voice* The word ‘poison’ here can mean many things. ‘Poison’ may literally refer to the presence of an unwashed llama in a stream from which a nearby village likely collects its drinking water. Likewise, it may figuratively refer to the effect of greed and isolation on the priorities of a young ruler, or the machinations of a villainous royal advisor on the health and wellbeing of said young ruler. In this case, however, ‘poison’ most literally refers to the poison, the poison for Kuzco, the poison chosen especially to kill Kuzco, Kuzco’s poison… That poison.

The most fucked up thing about modern culture’s view of traditional crafts is probably just how sophisticated they are, and have been for thousands of years, compared to the things that came to be seen as more respectable and cool.

Anyone can learn how to change a tire or fix a leak and anyone capable of lifting the necessary objects can perform those jobs correctly, but some people (me) WILL NEVER AND CAN NEVER even begin to comprehend making a pattern like this by hand.

How did anyone even figure out how to make a fucking basket??? Even beginning with bird’s nests as models, which is the lead theory, this is some kind of geometric sorcery I can’t believe a single person had the patience for, but they did, and it’s a feat of engineering that helped build society as we know it only for later generations to make fun of it as a boring, wimpy thing to do, like anything else that was pioneered by women I guess.

This week I had my first lecture on Mesopotamian history. At one point, the professor was talking about ancient texts. As an example, he told us that if we read an ancient inscription of a king who conquered other peoples, we could just take it as that, as a king telling us about something he did. Then he said this: “But most importantly, ask yourselves: “Why is he telling me this?””.

This, I think, is why Ancient History and all the other fields of the Classics department are more important than ever. I’ve studied other things before but never was there such an emphasis on the critical evaluation of sources. In my first semester, we critically analyzed Pericles’ funeral speech in Thukydides’ Peloponnesian War. In my second semester, we talked about historians’ interpretation of the past and how they were influenced by the events of their own times. I’m in my third semester now. 

In the times of “fake news” and “alternative facts”, this skill is the most valuable tool we have. I’ve started studying Ancient History because of my love for the ancient Greeks but this is living proof that Classics is much more than just the study of long dead civilizations. 

So always ask yourselves: “Why is that person telling me this?”

[horreurscopes]

#i think this is widely applicable to history as a discipline#it would be so much more useful to students to focus on evaluation of sources rather than date memorization in high school#and not just why is that person telling me this but why is this person specifically the one who got to tell it#and who isn’t getting to tell me something because they have been erased#and why are they telling it in this way#have they demonstrated that they are reliable or unreliable in other things they have said#what do their contemporaries say about the same thing#what power is being served#for so long in human history it cost so much money and human capital to enter something into the artistic or historical record#power is always being served #history tag (source)
