RKS Literature: History Professors Not Liking History! (Thomas Mann)

“He knows that history professors do not love history because it is something that comes to pass, but only because it is something that has come to pass: that they hate a revolution like the present one because they feel it lawless, incoherent, irrelevant- in a word unhistoric: that their hearts belong to the coherent, disciplined historic past.”

Thomas Mann: “Disorder and Early Sorrow”, 1925.
