The study of history has changed over time in a number of ways. In the past, it was largely focused on the study of ‘great men’ and their deeds, but in more recent years, there has been a shift in focus to understanding the broader social and cultural contexts in which these events occurred. For instance, historians have taken more of an interest in the experiences of people who were not as influential or powerful in the political arena. This way of studying history has shed new light on how certain events and developments unfolded and why they have had such a lasting impact. Additionally, historians have made use of new methods and technologies to uncover more information about the past, such as the use of genetic studies, technology, and digital resources. As a result, the study of history is becoming more dynamic and comprehensive.
