"El único historiador capaz de avivar la chispa de esperanza"
— Walter Benjamin
Simplified Meaning:
A historian who can keep hope alive is someone who tells stories of the past in a way that inspires us today. Imagine a storyteller who talks about a time when people faced huge problems but still found solutions and made things better. When we hear these stories, we start to believe that we too can overcome our difficulties. For example, learning about how people rebuilt their lives after a war can make us feel that we can also recover from our own struggles. By sharing positive and uplifting histories, this special kind of historian helps us stay optimistic and motivated. So, if you are feeling down, think about reading or listening to stories from the past that show human strength and resilience. This can give you the hope and courage to tackle your own challenges.
