“The chronicler who narrates events without distinguishing between major and minor ones acts in accord with the following truth: nothing that has ever happened should be regarded as lost to history.” Walter Benjamin, “On the Concept of History,” in Walter Benjamin: Selected Writings: Volume 4, 1938-1940, ed. Michael W Jennings (Cambridge, MA, and London: The Belknap Press of Harvard University Press, 2003).
