Speak, History!

Stella Tillyard on why history no longer seems an adequate guide to understanding our present.

"For most of my adult life", writes Stella Tillyard, "I have had a template which I have used not only to understand myself but also to interpret the world around me. History has been my guide".

But today, she says, history appears inadequate "to describe the chaos that now seems to surround us".
