Historical narratives can take many forms, including books, speeches, articles, and documentaries. These narratives may be influenced by the author's perspective, biases, and interpretation of the events being discussed. By examining historical narratives, researchers can gain insight into how the past is understood and remembered in different contexts and cultures.
