Burke's idea about history suggests that our current situation is shaped by everything that has happened in the past, not just events from the recent centuries. This means that the things we see and experience today are connected to many earlier events, ideas, and cultures, not just the last hundred or two hundred years. History is like a big puzzle where each piece, even those from long ago, helps us understand our present. So, to truly understand where we are now, we need to look much further back than just recent history.
Explain in your own words the following statement on Burks thinking of History "The present is the result of all the past and not just hundred and fifty or two hundred years". Please explain it using simple common words in four to five sentences and in brief.
