"Should Key Events In The Historical Development Of Areas Of Knowledge Always Be Judged By The Standards Of Their Time?"

Abstract

An important dimension pertains to the fact that knowledge is vast and there are many angles that need to be appreciated with regard to the manner in which the history is to be investigated and probed. The present study seeks to unravel the ways in which knowledge
acquisition is impinged upon by the historical trajectories. Given the fact that history is too vast and moves in a diverse manner across time and space, the same aspect needs to be probed at length. The study concludes with directions for further research and implications.
