It was to be rewritten, as he knew, not by its author but by the Jewish people on their way to freedom. In fact, it was revised from the moment the Zionist movement was organized on an international basis. The "Society of Jews" became the Zionist Organization, with its statutes, its procedures, its public excitement and controversies.
If the Greeks had had gunpowder, electro-magnetism, the printing press, history would need to be rewritten. Why the inquisitive Greek mind did not find out these things is a mystery upon any other theory than the one we are considering. And it is as mysterious that China, having gunpowder and the art of printing, is not today like Germany.
He did not trouble himself to say that his poem was an unconscious reproduction of the other; that was for every reason unnecessary, but he had at once rewritten it upon wholly different lines; and I do not think any reader was reminded of Mrs. Akers's "Among the Laurels" by Lowell's "Foot-path."
History is said to enable the artist to transcend the limits which the modes of thought and feeling of his own day would else prescribe to him. Each generation of artists would not learn new truths from history, but history would be rewritten by each generation of artists.
As a result of the attention excited by these or by certain of these books, I was in the year 1907 invited to visit America and deliver a series of addresses on the Socialist propaganda of the day. These addresses were presently rewritten and published in a volume called A Critical Examination of Socialism.
When I sent her the third-rate magazine containing my story nothing but a third-rate magazine would take it in its rewritten form she wrote to say that she was so glad that I had let the poor girl know. Early in April I received a letter from an aunt of mine in the country, saying that she intended to sell her place and come to the city to live.
For seven or eight years past I have seldom rewritten one of the many pages which circumstances have compelled me to inflict upon the world. But the discipline of "Idolatry" probably taught me how to clothe an idea in words. By the time "Idolatry" was published, the year 1874 had come, and I was living in London.
One or two writers, pursuing the assumption that the barbarous tribes at the north and the old Mexicans were of the same race, and substantially the same people, have undertaken to give us the history of Montezuma’s empire “entirely rewritten,” and show that his people were “Mexican savages.” In their hands Montezuma is transformed into a barbarous Indian chief, and the city of Mexico becomes a rude Indian village, situated among the islands and lagoons of an everglade which afforded unusual facilities “for fishing and snaring birds.” One goes so far as to maintain this with considerable vehemence and amusing unconsciousness of absurdity.
We had a conference after the dress-rehearsal, and our friend Mr Goble told him in no uncertain words in the whole course of my experience I have never heard words less uncertain that his damned rotten high-brow false-alarm of a show I am quoting Mr Goble would have to be rewritten by alien hands. And these are them! On the right, alien right hand. On the left, alien left hand.
Their philosophy of war will have to be rewritten when the time comes for them to accommodate their doctrine to their own defeat. In the meantime they teach frightfulness to their officers, and most of their officers prove ready pupils.
