According to wikipedia Aurora Morales is a "radical jewish writer" ... in other words instead you'll just consume another subjective narrative by someone who has a stake in pushing it for their own ideological aims. Thanks but no thanks. I'd rather read the actual sources (eg Seutonius etc) and make up my mind also weighting the facts of who wrote it (winner/loser/hack like Jordanes) in. Everyone knows history is written by winners and not subjective. Not interested in another "storyteller" ...
- deltaonefour 5y agoEh. All journalism is subjective. The only thing one can change is the stylistic tone to sound more formal. Make no mistake, all articles are subjective even when made to sound dry and robotic. The only thing that isn't subjective is statistics, but such data is missing much qualitative information and can be manipulated to fool you as well. Much of the way we interpret the world is colored with a qualitative human experience. World War 2 is given to us with a bunch of numbers and statistics is meaningless. Unfortunately this "qualitative" is inevitably colored with bias. So in short I'm saying, the author of that book isn't disguising his book with a false sense of subjectivity. He is presenting his view point as a human narrative that is inevitably colored with his bias; and that is not always a bad thing.
