Is the profession of a historian inherently immoral then? How many things we know and how many of them are of crucial historical importance that were not supposed to be known?
- ozim 3y agoIdea is that historians don’t deal with recently deceased and they are not digging into their close relatives or friends. I do wish my close ones to obey my will. I don’t care about some random person 50 years later after I die. I will also obey the will of my relatives and close ones to show that I respect the will so when it is my turn to go away others will treat me as I treated others.
