Don't our traditional forms of information communication, notably "the book" and especially "the text book" contribute to our belief in linear history?

The theory of linear history is that history goes from the beginning to the end without repeating itself like in the theory of cyclical history. Linear history is best represented by a time line where you can see how it progresses throughout history. This theory consists of believing everything happens in a certain order. We learn things in a linear order going from one subject to the next but not repeating itself. Books and text books support the theory of linear history too. Teachers normally go through the book from the beginning to the end such as in the theory of linear history. Books and novels for literature also go in order from the exposition to the resolution or denouement. Text books for school start at chapter one then go on until the index each chapter, teaching us about a different unit from before. All books and texts book don’t repeat themselves, but in literature they can have a motif. Most people probably do consider history to be linear instead of cyclical because they see that throughout history there are a chain of events. One thing leads to another and then has a result, but nothing really repeats itself. They believe it more to be a cause then an effect progression instead of a cycle of events repeating themselves. Our traditional forms of information communication can help us learn more about the theory of linear history and what it consists of. Linear history is a major part of the way we live.
