Answer 1

History and Legend

 

Hello friends I am Shivam Thakur and I am here to speak on the topic “History and Legends”.

Now firstly the question rises what is this history? And what is this legend? And what is the difference between these two? I will answer all these questions.

According to me History is the study of human past events and it is left behind by human beings in the written documents. It is very important for us that we should know our culture, tradition, and customs. It can be remembered if we know the history of our ancient peoples. We give homage to freedom fighter because they give us independence and we know this because we know history.

Now the answer to the question what is legend is as follows: - Legend is a traditional stories which may be true or may be lie. For examples =folktales and fairy tales. The probability of both truth and lie is 50%.This legend also contributed to history in many ways.

And these all tells us what difference between History and Legends is that we can easily separate them. Historical event from the testimony is witness and learn but it is not produce as like legend (Traditional stories like fairy tales and folktales).

Answer 2

History serves as a guide, an example and a warning. Out of the pages of history we may gather practical wisdom by applying the lessons of the past to the problems of the present. History confers on the young the wisdom of age without the burden of years. It is thus the pleasantest school for acquiring wisdom.
