Historical Context Quotes

I was also a big Woody Allen fan. When I got into college I listened to Lenny Bruce but it’s taken me years to put him into context historically and really get what he did Picture Quote #1

The roots of great innovation are never just in the technology itself. They are always in the wider historical context. They require new ways of seeing. As Einstein put it, ‘The significant problems we face cannot be solved at the same level of thinking we were at when we created them.’ Picture Quote #1

I think if you place Jesus firmly in the historical context... you can make very educated hypotheses and guesses about how he lived Picture Quote #1

Poetry is a river; many voices travel in it; poem after poem moves along in the exciting crests and falls of the river waves. None is timeless; each arrives in an historical context; almost everything, in the end, passes. But the desire to make a poem, and the world’s willingness to receive it--indeed the world’s need of it--these never pass Picture Quote #1

The alienation effect in German epic theater is achieved not only through the actors, but also through music (chorus and song) andsets (transparencies, film strips, etc.). Its main purpose is to place the staged events in their historical context Picture Quote #1

To me, there’s a huge difference between criticism and reviewing. I really love reading good criticism of television and film.

I’ve always felt that the poems I’ve written which have historical context are hopefully not just simply plucking something out of history and saying great, let’s write about that.

I do want to write about social/cultural/historical context. I’m interested in relationships, in character, but within a specific social context. Which is kind of a political thing, I admit that. But it’s what I’m interested in, and it’s how I believe human behavior is legible Picture Quote #1

I try to take pictures on their own terms, considering the historical and social context from which they emerge Picture Quote #1

Now, whenever you read any historical document, you always evaluate it in light of the historical context Picture Quote #1

It’s very important to always put things in their historical contexts. It teaches important lessons about the country in question Picture Quote #1

It’s never pleasant to have one’s unquestioning beliefs put in their historical context, as I know from experience, I can assure you Picture Quote #1

The field of the novel is very rich. If you’re a composer, you’re well aware of the history of composition, and you are trying to make your music part of that history. You’re not ahistorical. In the same way, I think, if you write now, you are writing in the historical context of what the novel has been and what possibilities it has revealed Picture Quote #1

Testimony should be a philosophical problem and not limited to legal or historical contexts where it refers to the account of a witness who reports what he has seen Picture Quote #1
