- Abstract
History becomes a blur when recounted, written or discussed long after events have occurred. Governments, publishing houses and other media promote multimodal texts according to their political, religious or other doctrinal dispositions and objectives. As such, to most minds, both young and old alike, abstract entities such as truth and falsehood, or right and wrong, become a matter of interpretation based on the selected representation of facts, and/or their personal exposure to indoctrination. In their attempts to present a judicious account of history, partisan or indeed neutral writers conduct their research on the basis of the available versions of information and then abandon the recipients of the same to discern the truth for themselves. However, this approach does not necessarily facilitate knowledge acquisition or the growth of humanity in general. This is because rampant confusions typically remain due to a persistent lack of application of the principles of neutrality, logic and justice surrounding the interpretation of events on the part of the lazy or ill-informed reader. Therefore, it seems that as misperceptions linger or increase, often leading to bitter and enduring conflicts, there is an ever-compelling need to discuss incidents based on universal values of humanity, and accepted principles of reason and simple logic.
