What is history to you?
Removed from any specifics - i.e. History as a discipline, something you study at university - but simply the abstract concept of history, 'the past'. What is it to you?

Expresses the exceeding size of one's library.
Books are extremely many, loaded on an oxcart the ox will sweat.
At home piled to the ridgepole of the house, from this meaning.

I don’t know, why don’t you just tell me why I’m wrong instead of making me jump through these hoops first

I'm trying to do quantitative research here and you people can't stop bitching for long enough to answer a simple poll on an entry-level topic
the only one jumping through hoops is me

Strictly speaking, "a collection of events" is correct, but it also lacks everything that makes history actually history.
I'll vote "Other" for now, but I'm postponing the explanation.
see, this is an answer, it's that simple.
that said, the high contracting parties call upon this plaintiff to clarify what is 'actually history'

A collection of events and texts describing them, be it through oral tradition/written in some medium/found by other means, as well as the interpretations of events by people from generations far removed from the events in an attempt to make a recognizable order into what is essentially a chaotic puzzle that cannot be solved.
Now, if you can in your nicest words, correct me where I'm wrong, since I'm sure to be in some way or another
despite your impressions I'm not actually here to tell people why they're wrong. I'm conducting a survey. Put your answers in the poll kthx

Mind giving the class some context why you are conducting a survey then?
I told you, it's a test.

An aggregated narrative of past events as told through written documentation.
Or something along those lines anyways.
"Here's a bangin lil' tune about takin' on The Man!"
(Check out my Super Special Awesome Servant Compendium here)
History is a shitty American TV channel about aliens
alternatively, history is also an inquiry to a collection of narratives
As soon as I can manage to formulate an answer with which I'm satisfied, I'll be sure to do so, Your Honour!
On a more serious note, I'm thinking of the historical constructs which, in some way, still shape our socio-ideological landscape. I'm just trying to formulate an actual concept which isn't me just quoting from, I don't know, Jenkins, Ginzburg or similar.
complex articulation is really secondary here, i'm just trying to assess in very general terms (hence the extreme reductiveness of the poll categories) where the forum stands

"For in the history of philosophy, as in every other kind, nothing capable of being learnt by heart, nothing capable of being memorized, is history."
thanks as always Dr Collingwood

History: The collection of actions taken by every person in the past, actions that, together, shaped humanity and the world we live in today, just like we are currently shaping humanity's future.
At least that's how I see it. You could describe it as a collection of events/texts, but that's more like how we perceive/record it, and not history itself.
