Why do we need to understand history ?
Why should we celebrate a historical event ?
What is a memorial in one sense ?
How should history be told in our lives ?

If we lived in a small community and knew that we would live together for all generations, then we could listen to the wisdom of the ancient sages in the form of life counselling.

So here is the knowledge from ancient times to the present.
Where is the wisdom? It is hidden in experience !
And the wisdom is also written in the experience of history.

Antônio Conselheiro made history as an itinerant preacher and founder of the city of Bela Monte / Canudos, even though he was the loser of the war.

Normally, only the victors write history because they have power over the word.

Antônio Conselheiro as part of history is indeed a special phenomenon.

The birthplace of this man, the city of Quixeramobim, can be proud of its son ... . (2010)

It is to be hoped that the town of Quixeramobim will recognise this great opportunity to recover the hidden historical values of life and bring them into the present.

The museum and the memorial organize an annual festival.

This meaning must be expanded.

The most important step now is to initiate a phase in which knowledge can be concentrated and unearthed.

It should also be a feature to make analyses in order to then carry aspects into our society today as soon as these values are available.

It makes great sense to discover meaningful life content in a social context :
Antônio Conselheiro lives !

In this sense, history perhaps builds a bridge to our present and even to our daily lives.

Although much knowledge has been lost, so much is still available that this value can certainly serve as a basis for the expansion and progress of knowledge in our time.

Antônio Conselheiro has created special facts. These results are illuminating and project them into our time. Only then does history have a strong value.

Would you say that our current society is ideal ?

If not, then it makes sense to open it up to values that are still being sought or even already exist, such as the experience of history.
