Historical Narrative

Historical Narrative 

In an earlier blog post, I had posted about historical narratives. 

So as mentioned before, what is a historical narrative?

A historical narrative is the facts that you would hear in your high school history class. An example of this would be that the 1920s were a prosperous time in American history.

It something that is repeated and told over and over again. It is usually what America accepts a truth.

But what exactly is a Historical truth compared to a Historical fact?

Is there is a difference between the two?

What is the truth couldn't be fact and what is fact could or couldn't be considered truth depending on which side of the argument is looking at.

But I'm getting too philosophical. 

What one person might consider as historical truth another person might view it as false, therefore the argument is kind of invalid.

Depending on which side of history one is looking at, both answers might be correct.

There are many different view points in history so there isn't a correct answer to a historical fact and a historical truth in my opinion.
