I've often thought it would be cool to be able to travel back in time to see something for myself. The stipulation would be that I couldn't interact with anyone or anything and that no one could see me. That way no one would be in danger and events wouldn't be influenced.

What I'd like to see:
Dinosaurs
Rome during its pinnacle of power
Cleopatra, to see if she was as beautiful as historians say
Man at different stages of evolution
The birth of Christ
The Sermon on the Mount (would have to be able to understand Aramaic!)

What would you like to see?

All of the wonders of the world...

I love sailing ships, so I would have to visit any of the Eastern US harbors in the 1850's-1870's to check out the clipper ships.

Hmm, lots of stuff....

Philadelphia, around 1776
South America during the Aztecs/Mayans
The Garden of Eden (before the Apple)

I would love to go back to North America during the pioneer times ( 18th century).

Hm, I would be invisible while travelling?...Oh, good...then I would like to go back to the Middle Ages in Europe. Interesting times but extremely hard for women, especially those with red hair... wink.gif

I would love to meet Martin Luther to witness the circumstances which influenced him.

Evolution of man ... step by step...

and a lot more!

Please don't take this the wrong way. I think it would be interesting to see Hitler speak. Before you judge let me explain. I abhor everything he stood for. But, he is an interesting and important character in history. He was supposed to be a supreme orator. Besides, I think it would lend some perspective to see both the good things in history, and the bad.

We heard some of his rhetorics while our history lessons at school.
He HAD the gift to fascinate and carry away the masses.
This is one of the things that made him so dangerous...

Exactly why I think it'd be fascinating. Being in the presence of pure evil would be a bit disconcerting, though.

Nah, Sarge, I know what you mean. I heard the same things, charisma, etc. I would like to listen to him for a few minutes, then pop him with a hollow-point.

To watch the battle at Bannockburn (from a safe distance, of course) - and to KNOW whether the battle took place down on the carse or upon dry hill... Archaeologists STILL can't decide where it really took place!

To be in a posh Edinburgh salon at the time of Robert Burns - to hear that charismatic man actually recite some of his own works.

Ren. Fests are wonderful. I like to dress in full jester gear and go with my owner. She dresses as a fine lady and keeps me on a leash (studded collar). I get to behave OUTRAGEOUSLY! biggrin.gif

Time travel offers many ideas for we who are amature history buffs. Woodstock might be fun.

Here's my list, in no particular order:

The birth of Christ
Christ's crucifixion
The Battle of Hastings
Nuremburg trials
Drafting of the Declaration of Independence
Lee's surrender to Grant in the courthouse at Appamattox
The fall of the Berlin Wall

Being future King I time travel all the time, Mark Twain and I were discussing just last week about Halleys Comet. If you have any questions about anything in history just let me know! I'll go check on it for you

Posted by: andylucy 28-Mar-2004, 12:23 AM
Geez, this like asking a kid in a candy store to pick a few candies when he wants them all! Let's see...

New York, July 6, 1776- I want to see EXACTLY what the Black Watch's uniform looked like as they arrived in the colonies. I've spent much of my adult life researching this, and I would love to know for sure.

Camerone, Mexico, April 30, 1863- I want to see (from a safe vantage), the pivotal battle in the development of the central mythos of the French Foreign Legion.

Bethlehem, ca. BC/AD transition- I would like to be present at the birth of Christ, and to see if the Basilica of the Nativity is in the right place.

Jerusalem, app 30 years later- I would like to be present at the Crucifixion, then hang out for three days, and be there at the Resurrection.

Nuremberg, September 14, 1936- I, too, would enjoy watching Hitler's performance as an orator. By the way Eamon, a .40 cal Federal Hydro-shock round would be much more effective than a hollow-point. biggrin.gif

Trent, from 1545-1563 intermittently- to see the epochal Council of Trent.

Athens, app 400 BC- to see the trial of Socrates.

New Orleans, January 8, 1815- to see if the British troops really "... ran so fast the hounds couldn't catch 'em, on down the Mississippi to the Gulf of Mexico."

Dublin, April 24, 1916- to see the Easter Uprising (not to be confused with the Resurrection! laugh.gif )

And about 1,000,000 others.

This is a wonderful thread...

I can not even think of where to begin..
because the right side of my brain,keeps yammering ....
something about Brave Sir Robin,
personally wetting himself at the Battle of Bristol !

Going to Pennisc , is like going back in time for two weeks..
but.. you know you go back to air conditioning and flush toilets when its all over..

The renaissance .. I think I could spend sometime there ..
Italy must have been hoppin !

Ancient Greece..

Just to get started...

Paula

Andy , I am with you on the Uniform thing, I would love to see the clothes, and the Architecture..and the comforts of every day living we tend to take for granted

Posted by: tsargent62 01-Apr-2004, 10:34 AM
I would like to go back to 1200s Scotland and see William Wallace fight. Just to see if the man lives up to the legend.

I would also love to go to the little island near New Caledonia where, during WWII, my dad served in the Marine Corps.

Washington, DC, to see MLK give his "I have a dream" speech.

Ancient Rome, to see the Senate in action.

Ancient Greece, to see the original Olympics. What would it be like if it was all still done naked?

Wow!

Yes to tagging along on the Enterprise.
No to listening Hitler, I agree on principle, but yech!
Yes to traveling on a clipper ship or at least watching them come into Boston Harbor.
Yes to Battle of Hastings, Stirling Bridge, Runnymede 6/10/1215, Waterloo, Signing of the Declaration of Independence, Dealy Plaza 11/22/1963.
No to Culloden, Crucifixion, Alamo,...
Yes to Lincoln Memorial 8/28/1963 (MLK's I Have a Dream), Gettysburg 11/19/1863 (for the Address, not the battle).

Also, I like to see one of Shakespeare's plays at the Globe Theatre (or is it one of Marlowe's plays? subject for another forum!)
Listen to Liszt and Chopin and Rachmaninoff, ...
Punt on the river Thames in the 1800's.
Go to a ball (before the Victorian era, I couldn't wear a whalebone corset!)
Go to a London nightclub in the '20s
Ride to the hounds (riding lessons would be necessary)
Go to Paris with a lover between the Wars (Hemingway's Paris).

Of course I'd want to experience these things as a member of the upper class!

Posted by: Catriona 01-Apr-2004, 04:07 PM

I've seen a number of productions at the New Globe theatre in London... MacBeth was brilliant 'in the round'..

It is an amazing structure - and well worth a trip, even if it is only to look around, rather than watch any Shakespeare!

I'm surprised no one mentioned Charlemange (sory if I spelled it wrong tongue.gif ). I would want to go to Catal Huyuk (again I may have spelled that wrong), and see why homo sapien sapiens started farming and living in towns, instead of staying as hunters and gatherers. Or to one of the Sumer city-states. And see if the one guy...(can't remember the name wink.gif ) really ran naked to Athens after the battle of Marathon, to warn them about the Persian ships....and then die afterwards..
And so many others...
Maybe see Plato start The Academy...
Or see how Menes united Upper and Lower Egypt....

I just read this thread and I don't think I want to go back to see wars, but I agree with someone who wanted to go hear the greats preform music.
Mozart, Bach, Brahams, etc. and etc.
I think I'd like to have been in the audience the first time Handel's Messiah was performed.
Seeing Shakespear performed for the first time.
Hearing the Gettysburg Address
Seeing the sky without light clutter and smog, the rivers and oceans pure and pristine.

Someone may have alluded to this but...

I would love to go back and find out what happened to the Mayan civilization. See why they vanished. I think it would be cool to see how the Aztecs, Toltecs, Incas and any other Central or South American people lived. Not sure I'd want to see an Aztec human sacrifice. Too brutal. They ripped the hearts out of their still living victims.

I live about 20 minutes from Valley Forge and make it a point to go there every winter. You sit there for a few minutes and get cold and uncomfortable, and you wonder how they dealt with it for an entire winter. Actually, the winter that the Rev war soldiers REALLY hated was Morristown 1779-1780. Bitter cold.

Cool story about Valley Forge was two years ago. Early spring, at the park for a hike, and I went up to on of those wood boxes that hold the pamphlets to get a map. A wee birdie was screeching about, and inside the box was a nest and some eggs. I left my buddy at the box, went over to the National Park Service office, told them what they had, and watched them put cones around the box. From what I understand, that box was closed until the wee birdies launched! Gotta love the NPS!

I'd like to go back to the old west, and meet the Earps, Doc Holliday, Bat Masterson, etc. I'd like to see just how the gunfight at the OK corral went down, and just how Pat Garrett killed Billy the Kid.

Some of the concerts mentioned would be good. To hear Bach performed by the man himself would be educational, at the very least. Mozart was supposed to be an awesome performer.

But first, I want to go see the Battle of Pearl Harbor, Dec. 7th, 1941. My father was there.

I want to see the betrayal of Caesar because I am interested in which senators were actually involved, and if Brutus was really one of the firsts to stab him and if his final words were about Brutus.

Dinosaurs (as seen from inside a small but deep cave in the side of a mountain)

Haha! It pays to be specific!

I would love to have seen:
Alice Cooper perform together on their first two albums
Meet Eleanor Roosevelt (I adore her)
Live among artists during the Renaissance
Anytime with Jesus
Observe cavemen (from a distance, I'm not so keen on being clubbed and dragged to a cave)

If the TARDIS was real I would love to see the original 8 wonders of the world. Go inside the Library of Alexandria (bookworm). See who really built the pyramids and how they built Stonehenge and similar places. See the Lost City of Atlantis. Gunfight at the OK Corral. The 1904 St. Louis World's Fair. The Parthenon during it's glory and other historic sites. The painting of the Sistene Chapel. Jesus walk on water and parting of the seas. The Trojan War. Meet Robin Hood.
