The book begins by examining the concept of mythistory, which the author defines as "a story that is told as if it were true, but which is not supported by historical evidence." The author argues that myths are not simply harmless stories, but that they can have a powerful impact on our understanding of the world. Myths can be used to justify violence, oppression, and inequality. They can also be used to create a sense of national identity and unity.
The book then goes on to examine the role that monuments play in the construction and dissemination of myth. The author argues that monuments are not simply passive objects, but that they are actively involved in the process of myth-making. Monuments can be used to commemorate events, people, and ideas. They can also be used to create a sense of place and belonging. Monuments can be powerful symbols of national identity and unity.
The book concludes by examining the implications of the relationship between monuments and mythistory for our understanding of the past and the present. The author argues that we need to be aware of the ways in which monuments can be used to manipulate our understanding of history. We also need to be aware of the ways in which monuments can be used to create a sense of national identity and unity. By understanding the relationship between monuments and mythistory, we can better understand the world around us and make more informed decisions about the future.
