Thus it will remember the history of the past, make history in the present, and teach history in the future. (William Morris, 1889 in Cole, ed.,1944, p. 492)Afrikaans: … wanneer die moderne wêreld vind dat die eklektiese tans onvrugbaar en vrugteloos is, en dat dit ’n styl van argitektuur gaan nodig hê en benodig wat slegs deel is van ’n verandering so wyd en diep dat dit Feudalisme sal vernietig, dan kan die gevolgtrekking gevorm word dat die styl van argitektuur histories in die ware sin van die woord is, dit sal nie instaat wees om tradisie uit te oefen nie, dit kan nie begin ten minste sonder om iets te doen wat baie verskillend is van wat reeds gedoen is nie, maak nie saak wat die vorm daarvan mag wees nie, die gees van dit sal in die simpatie lê met die behoeftes en aspiraties van hulle eie tyd, nie simulasies van behoeftes en aspirasies wat reeds weg is nie. Dit sal dus die geskiedenis van die verlede onthou, geskiedenis maak in die huidige en geskiedenis onderrig in die toekoms.enArchitectureHeritageHistoryMemoryArticleUniversity of the Free State
