If youвЂ™d attended college between about 18, you would likely have read GuizotвЂ™s History of Civilization in Europe. That turns out to be utterly false, and GuizotвЂ™s great work is an important reason why. According to these multiculturalist historians, Americans neither studied nor cared about Western civilization prior to World War I. Obscure though it may be, however, the deconstructionist myth that Western civilization was a propagandistic invention of the First World War has been trotted out for decades by the educators responsible for junking Western Civ courses in favor of World History. Sensible Americans would long ago have dismissed this oddball claim as another bit of nonsense from the postmodern academy, had they encountered it. I ran across Guizot while researching the claim - widely accepted by contemporary academic historians - that the very idea of Western civilization was вЂњinventedвЂќ during World War I as a way of duping young Americans into fighting and dying in the trenches of Europe. If there is one early history of the West still worth reading in this day and age, GuizotвЂ™s is definitely it.
