Unlike any written history, Will Durant wrote his masterpiece, The Story of Civilization, to simplify and encourage history reading. Since quoting is the art of selecting the appropriate, the author chose what is to promote the art of reading among his students. One of the main responsibilities of reading is to leave the accumulation of aquired knowledge to the coming generations, and to open the horizon to people to venture into rational conversations and exchange ideas. As a teacher of English language, with an experience period of more than 30 years, Wadih Barakat took his time to read, quote and reflect on the 11 volumes of The Story of Civilizations to help enlighten the community he is living in, because a real teacher is a real father and a real educadtor.
