Hegemony/history

Famous quotes containing the words hegemony and/or history:

“The author’s hegemony must be broken. It is impossible to go too far in fanatical self-denial or fanatical self-renunciation: I am not I, but rather the street, the streetlights, this or that occurrence, nothing more. That’s what I call the style of stone.”
—Alfred Döblin (1878–1957)

“Classes struggle, some classes triumph, others are eliminated. Such is history; such is the history of civilization for thousands of years.”
