Past & Present (journal)
Past & Present is a British historical academic journal, which was a leading force in the development of social history. It was founded in 1952 by a combination of Marxist and non-Marxist historians. The Marxist historians included members of the Communist Party Historians Group, including E. P. Thompson, Christopher Hill, Eric Hobsbawm, Rodney Hilton, and Dona Torr.
It is published four times a year by Oxford University Press on behalf of the Past and Present Society, a British historical membership association and registered charity.
The society also publishes a book series (Past and Present Publications), and sponsors occasional conferences and appoints postdoctoral fellows.

Past Present is the twelfth album by Irish folk group Clannad, released in 1989. It is a compilation of the band's work up to 1989. It includes two new songs not found on any previous or (to date) successive Clannad album, "The Hunter" and "World of Difference". Three singles were released to promote the compilation: "The Hunter", "In a Lifetime" (re-issue) and the band's only double A-side "Hourglass"/"Theme from Harry's Game". A book of sheet music for all songs except "Stepping Stone" was also produced.

Past Present
by: Skinny Puppyis this pure reality
could we be led to believe
lemmings up against a sea
drowning in speculation
even told when waters older
more polluted never
drink the murky media
to plumb the depth of time
what of human frailty
visualize with clarity
past the sanitation
to childish flesh and bone
bleaching sticks and stoner ribs
pukes up gallows laughter
stage the mighty media
blessing this sanitation
what is this supposed to hold
freedoms crush disparaged souls
despot dug in yellowcake
and failed to certify it
crippled son to pass it on
a hatred fed on hatred
born deify defensive form
as if to never see that
what is real canned I feel
less important than today anyway is it worth the slaughter?
Sit and feel absolutely zero suffering
a condition worth denying
pasted carcass killing fields
body parts off dolls that bleed
who was once committed for
pulling wings off flying things
feeling bold to knot put over
twisted ever after
hissing faded left alone
to replicate the lie
what is real
asks the dream
some dim shift a rift within
funniest seems a distant damp ring
fitting end destitution ego death within
a condition dear dementia
