First motive in life and second in history

The study of history can be very boring of charming, it is alone from the student and from the will that we have to know that is occurred; it is simply obvious; hence the fuck you are allowed; but I want stress that very much arguments, in official history, are very marginal, and never considered, but some monography, of Raymond de Roover(1904-1972), The Medici bank. Its organization, management, operation, and decline is a very discover because tells a argument that is fundamental always, but that isn’t considered, in this case the money. Some example can to understand what is the writer what want explains: “In Florence, in the fifteenth century, there were three or four different credit institutions called bank in Italian…The first were pawnshop, operating under a public license which permitted the pawnbrokers to make secured by pledge of personal property at a legal rate of four pence per pound a month or 20 per cent a year…”; certainly this is alone a historical information that hasn’t importance for history; instead has its importance, because we can understand, or better, hypothesize what was the spending of lords for a war, and where these lords took the money; that are argument very practical and daily, that aid to understand that the times and morality a customs are changed, but the needs are identical, the municipalities, at last in Italy, can reach loans from banks for public needs, streets, schools and other; it is the reproof of continuity of history and its necessities; because fortunately today war are extern to our countries but, at last in Italy a weekend could be not without a war, who given the money? Who given the finance necessary to arms and other? We can hypothesize that this cash come from these banks, these pawnshop; therefore the entrepreneurial wit was present also in old times, and it is normal, but we can alone think, but through these information we can understand that the history is continuous repeat itself, certainly though better tools, more easy, but always equal, this is the same ways that are better but equal in its nature; thereby Hegel(1770-1831) was right, when he has said in Philosophy of universal history that: “The present is the improved past”; it is the truth; because the tools are improved certainly, but the ways are always same; we can know that in Florence were also the retails banks, that may say very scant to whom isn’t Italian, but the retails banks were the rescue for family during 20^th century, I can witness it; in fact the bank with name Monte di Pietà, the Mount of pity was a bank that I have seen thousand, at last to name, and the name is always seems very strange, but now I can know that this Mount was present in 15^th century, hence it is an institution that has financed lords, imperators, popes and kings; today could finance a robber, because could to make easier the robbery. Anyway these arguments are alone synthetic but it are essential for understand the history from the low states, that are the true determination of history.
