Should I study History, Classics, or English?
are you more into historical events or more into language and literature?
if those three are among your choices maybe you should also consider looking into historical linguistics/Indo-European studies. It includes all three in a way - English as a part of Germanic studies, Classics in the form of Latin and Greek and History in the form texts from all sorts of historical cultures including ancient India, the Tocharians, Persia, the Slavs, the Celts and of course the classical world and the Germanic peoples. It's also the field that Tolkien was in, so if you like the LOTR lore, it's definitely something for you.

I enjoy reading books on European History of the 19th and 20th Centuries, but I also enjoyed reading the philosophic writings of Ancient Greece and Rome, as well as the poetry of said eras. As far as more recent literature goes, my interests include Joyce, Nabokov, Lewis Carroll, Dante, Baudelaire, & Proust, to name some favourites.
I read LOTR as a teen, but I haven't any particular attachment to it.

sounds like you're more into literature than history or linguistics then.
maybe english is the best way to go for you

Why has the average height of humans gradually increased throughout history?
Will this trend continue, and 7ft tall people become an average 500 years from now?

More calories and nutrients = more growth

>Why has the average height of humans gradually increased throughout history?
Better nutrition and likely epigenetics from the better nutrion
>Will this trend continue, and 7ft tall people become an average 500 years from now?
Without genetic engineering I doubt so. We'll peak between 180 cm and 190 cm.
>The Italian-type handmade pottery was foundat two sites, at Tell Kazel176 and at Tell Arqa.177 AtTell Kazel its local production has been confirmed bychemical and mainly petrographic analyses.178 Thispottery first occurred in stratified contexts before thefirst destruction of the settlement at the transition fromLate Bronze Age II to Iron Age I. This destruction canbe linked to the destruction of Amurru by the Sea Peoples mentioned in Ramesses IIIs year 8 inscrip-tion at Medinet Habu.179 Such handmade pottery maybe interpreted as related to immigrants originating fromItaly and integrated into the local Syrian society a situation analogous to the one attested in some ofthe palatial centres of the Aegean.180

>watch BBC news
>topic of Charlottesville comes up
>white nationalists want to defend a statue of Robert E. Lee from demolition
>reporter goes on to say: "Robert E. Lee who fought for slavery and racism"
Why does the BBC, a (former) respected news outlet spread such lies and historic innacuracies on national television?
because modern media is not about facts but about pushing a narrative and getting more viewers
>>3235648
As opposed to when exactly?
SOCIETY OF THE SPECTACLE
Being European, I want to learn casually about Robert Lee and his statue in Charlottesville.
How accurate is the Gettysburg film of 1993?
TL;DR he was the best general of the CSA, and they built a statue of him because he was one of the most important people born in Virginia
Then a bunch of hippies and yuppies showed up, and got into pissing match with a bunch of rednecks and salt right.
And now my city has to spend a bunch of money fighting court cases and tearing down a statue instead of fixing our decrepit infrastructure.
Thanks Mayor Huja.

I don't know how technically accurate it is but the film is definitely worth watching. Martin Sheen gives a great performance as Robert E. Lee and Lee's personality is why he's been remembered so fondly by most people with an interest in the Civil War or American history in general. Conflation of the Confederacy with racism is why people are opposed to his (and other) statues and memorials.
Thank you!
Many of our cities are renaming their Bismarckstreets, Moltkestreets etc., but this ongoing phenomenon occurs very quietly and without being noticed by the wider public at all.

The Nazis were German/Aryan nationalists who were willing to kill huge numbers of white people to achieve their goals, were more willing to work with Japanese and Arabs than with Poles, imposed anti-rational collectivist totalitarianism that is at odds with the relatively liberal politico-economic systems that did much to enable white dominance of the globe to begin with, and lost in dramatic fashion.
How are they supposed to be good representatives of white nationalism?
Is it just that white nationalists have tended to buy into conspiracy theories about Jewish subversion? Is it the aesthetics and enduring power of Nazi propaganda?

JOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOZ!
That's literally it. The only real point of commonality is blame da JOO for everything that goes wrong.
Was he really a good general?
The North won so I guess.
Yes he was and a great president his only crime was offending the Jew when he ban them from entering the South, the Jew was the carpetbagging fucks taking advantage of the down trodden, sadly the Jew has a Monopoly on all major universities and the education system and through their they manipulate history to villiamize their enemies and propogate their usefully idiots like the nigger communists nelson Mandela and Martin Luther King...the Jew has been kicked out and banned from 60 plus countries 114 times...recently that number has tripped but of course we would never learn such truths through the education system...
>>3235300
when are you just going to admit that jews clearly have a superior IQ enabling them to obtain higher positions than white people
it's the same as whites being able to out compete blacks
Why cant' Europe get into abstract art like every other culture on Earth can? The only time they were able to do it was the expressionist movement but that stopped when the nazis came into power. Why don't Europeans like abstract art like Arabs, east Asians, and Native Americans do?

The stupidest thread today
Im not even white
>>3235201
You are a mongrel who wants to be white. Pathetic.
>>3235175
aside from the modern movement of abstract art you have Celtic, Iberian, Germanic, and even more ancient pattern related art. Roman and Greek fresco patterns. Hell, even architecture itself is filled with abstract artistic features mixed with its grandure and practicality. OP faggotry.
Did the Huns have any culture behind them or were they just vicious barbarians?
>>3235159
Horsemanship, archery, some particular tools and stuff. Nothing mind-blowing but yeah, there's a culture.
Who was the most evil man that Ruled Britian?
Was it King John?
>>3235104
T'was Oliver Cromwell.
Commodus prolly.
Churchill, probably.

What do you mean by that?
You mean his oratory skills?
His journalism?
His edgy opinions?

No need for reading, just drink a gallon of whiskey a day and hit yourself on the head with a hammer a few times.

>Napoleonic France were the good guys and wanted peace
>invades Italy, Austria, HRE, Russia, and Spain and planned to invade England
>>3234969
>Italy, Austria, HRE, Russia, and Spain and planned to invade England
They were pretty unfriendly after the Revolution.
>>3234969
>invades Italy
Italy was an Austrian possession and Austrian forces invaded France from there in the first two coalition wars
France took over it after defeating Austrians
>Austria
Austria invaded France first, but got repulsed and then invaded
>HRE
Same as Italy, former Austrian possession used as an advanced base
>Russia
Russia had waged three wars of agression against France (one of which at the French-Italian border) before France finally invaded them
>Spain
Spain attacked France first in the War of the First Coalition
>and planned to invade England
Literally the country that started the Napoleonic Wars and kept them raging
Invading Britain would have meant putting an end to it
Not to mention Brits had unsuccessfully invaded France multiples times between 1795 and 1815
>>3234969
>invaded a country that didn't even exist at the time
how could he do it
