Quaestio He explicates, “There is no document of civilization which is not at the same time a document of barbarity.” Walter Benjamin insists that it is the historian’s task to be critical of ‘progress,’ to “brush history against the grain.” 2 Quaestio insists that it is the historian’s responsibility to do so. The exemplary pieces of scholarship contained in these pages were selected for publication because they take Benjamin’s critical and scrutinizing approach to the study of history, and in so doing, capture the very meaning of Quaestio. The compilation and publication of this journal would not have been possible were it not for the collaborative effort of a number of truly talented and tireless fellow undergraduate history enthusiasts. I would like to take this opportunity to express my sincerest gratitude to the editorial board — Stephanie Dyar, Alan Naroditsy, Tessa Nath, Serena Wu, and Lee Corkett. I would also like to commend Sohaib Baig, Zoë Rose Buonaiuto, Maneesh Karna, Ethan Scapellati, and Benjamin Steiner for their excellent scholarship. To Professor David N. Myers, Chair of the History Department, and Professor Joan Waugh, Vice-Chair of the History Department, thank you for your steadfast support of Phi Alpha Theta and Quaestio and for being so dedicated to the enrichment of the undergraduate experience. To Paul Padilla, Undergraduate Departmental Advisor, thank you for all your 2 Benjamin, 256. iv
Introduction invaluable guidance. Finally, on behalf of the editorial board, contributors, and readership of Quaestio, I thank the <strong>UCLA</strong> Department of History and its outstanding faculty for their investment in undergraduate research. I now invite you to enjoy the journal. I hope you will find that the quality of the scholarship contained herein does <strong>UCLA</strong>’s distinguished name justice. Respectfully yours, Diane Bani-Esraili Editor-in-Chief v
