ISSUE48: "The study of history places too much emphasis on individuals. The most significant events and trends in history were made possible not by the famous few, but by groups of people whose identities have long been forgotten."
Who create the history, the unknown populace or the big names? As far as I concern,(应该是as far as I am concerned吧?) the formation of historical events entails both. While some people managed to steer the sail, the group of people can fuel the trend and determine fates of the famous few(比喻很好), and therefore the study of historical celebrities allows us to paint the portrait of not only the famous individuals but also the multitude.(逻辑跳跃,名人掌舵小人物使力,如何Therefore出“学习和研究名人不仅能描述大人物而且能说明民众呢?)(另外,Study of history就是为了Understand大人物和小人物吗? 还是Understand the most significant events and trends呢?)
The influence (对历史的影响~点题了!^_^) of individual on history, no matter possitive(positive) or negative, is undeniable. Adolf Hitler, who commited the notorious crime in human history, steped(stepped) into politics with the help of his excellent rhetoric. He enthralled Germans with charisma, built a nation of militarism, and slaughtered millions of Jews out of his extreme(extreme) animosity. Moreover, his ambitions directly provoked the World War II, bringing human beings tempestial catastrophe. Also during the second world war, Charles de Gaulle, of his own, initiated Free France Forces and the persistent fight against Nazi. After leading people to success in war, he strived for the nation’s international status and revived France as a free and open country. What German would be and how France would like, were there no Hitler or de Gaulle? Would there be massacre, or, would there be independent France? No one can tell. (感觉例子里加点个人分析,说明影响有多大影响有多决定性就Perfect了~比如说It is Adolf Hitler who militarize Germany and thus bring genocide and World War II. Otherwise, conservative and cautious Germans would not turn out such a ghastful event. 不知道合适不。)
Nevertheless, just as the famous few can change the ordinary’s life, the ordinary, who accumulate to form social fundamentals and trends, make historical events possible and alter the destiny of big names. After all, any country is constructed by labor of the mass and any ideology is realized through wide acceptance of populace. Can western America prosper without arduous pioneers who toiled day and night? Can the conception of equality win the world but for many anonymous advocates who worked or even died in the battle against discrimination? Then, stoking the tension of significant changes, the multitude creates contexts for the famous few. On demand of reviving France after years of destructive riots, Napoleon Bonaparte rose and conquered. When the pursuit of freedom fired colonies to fight against the emperor together, he was subverted. (拿破仑这个很正点~感觉到人民的Influence了~)The overwhelming power of people floods through history, promoting the fate of societies and individuals alike.
Given the decisive role in forming history trends that groups of people play, the research of history should surely embrace them. Yet the criticism for history studies that they emphasis too much on notable individuals is unfair. In learning of the famous few, we can collect informations of the multitude as well. (感觉Off topic了,你的意思是“从大人物处了解小人物”。。。感觉少了个后续Step,个人对这个题目的意见是大人物某种程度上能代表小人物,因此允许忽略小人物来明白一个作为一个整体时对历史的Influence。个人想法~跳过)When reading the biography of Qeen Victoria, we gain knowledges of habits and fasions of contemporaries. When studying the idea of Marx, we refer to the ethos of Russian people and their living conditions. The study on the individual reveals the backgound of his time, rendering us the character of the public at that moment. Besides, many mass actions are marked by big names and remembered for big names. (Besides后面点题了! 研究大人物实际上同时研究了小人物,但如果补充上“因此我们才明白Significant events和trends的含义”,比如说种族平等、追求自由什么的,感觉会更好。)When mentioning Martin Luther King, Jr., one will soon think of the struggle of African American people; the name of Gandhi reminds people of the nonviolence activity in India. More than lives of celebrities, we gain the image of the mass and deeper impression of their deeds through the study of the famous few.
Impulsed by a myriad of people and guided sometimes by big names, the creation of histroy(history) is tricky and complex. We gain insights not only through the recognition for the multitude but also by the study of the famous few, which serves as both depiction of individuals and reflection of the mass.(最后回到你最终想要论证的事情,大前提:大人物和小人物共同构造历史,小前提:大人物能描述小人物,结论:研究大人物能明白他们共同构造的历史)建议Thesis句说明白这个论证过程~
纯属个人意见补充 不知道和你的思路Match不。。
咔咔~小螃蟹 不用留情拍我~谢谢了!
