The richness and divergent points of view that emerged from the lectures carried the message that history based upon only one source is suspect and that historical understanding must be derived from a confrontation of sources from cinema, television and museums, to state archives and oral history.
Only by examining the function of each source, and the different version it tells of the same history can the difficult task of building a history of Europe be undertaken.
