The Barber Who Read History And Was Overwhelmed, Rowan Cahill
The Barber Who Read History And Was Overwhelmed, Rowan Cahill
Rowan Cahill
Beginning with a chance encounter in a Barber's shop whilst travelling, the author ruminates on history, and the proposition that each and everyone of us is an historian, and that in a sense we are all time travellers. Bertolt Brecht (1898-1956) is invoked, and the role of radical historians from below discussed before the author returns to his Barber shop encounter, and to Brecht. The title of the piece references Brecht's poem A Worker Reads History (1936).
