A proposition that may contradict the ideas of some that history does not repeat itself due to the similarity of events
If you take a suitably sized event-type and temporal framework you can easily see that history repeats itself. That is why criminology, for example, identifies some individuals as serial killers.
A point of view that can be adopted... Yes, it is possible for some to believe that there are similar historical experiences
António José Rodrigues Rebelo
Very beautiful words at the core, and they reflect accumulated scientific experience... and historical experiences... It is an analysis of what many early historians hated, such as Unold Toynbee, Bertrand Russell, and others...
I agree with Profs Karl Pfeifer and Ahmed Shaker Alalaq
I have also sometimes thought that that history repeats itself.
And f it is something negative, I think to myself 'when will they every learn?! '
Me: Professor Rebelo, will you please repeat what you just said?
Professor Rebelo: Impossible!

Hello... Some historians and writers believe that it is possible to restore the features of the historical event and not the text of the event and its circumstances... For example, the repetition of the experience of the occupation of Russia by Napoleon Bonaparte in the nineteenth century, and the German military machine came in the twentieth century, specifically during the Second World War, and it was repeated The same mistake when the Germans tried to occupy Russia... Almost the same event was repeated here

When we consider a particular historical event we can abstract from it those properties that we consider salient. Depending on the properties we have chosen, it is not inconceivable that there might later occur another particular event that shares the same salient properties. That is to say, we might later have another distinct and therefore different event that nevertheless has the same properties that we considered to be salient; that is what repetition amounts to. However, the larger the set of properties, the less likely that all of those properties will co-occur in a later event. Moreover, historians are often vague about the set of properties they are assuming when they say history is repeating itself, which makes disagreement inevitable.
History that we know of is written by human an human repeats themselvrs over and over. It happens for our fundamental limitation in perception. As Thalse said a horse will draw a horse as its god. So we create reputitive patterns in history.
