How do Marxists view history?

The ideas of Karl Marx have prevailed for almost 2 centuries, being proven right at every turn. This is not because Marx was a prophet, who was ordeined to see into the future, but because he developed a lens with which to view the world.  This method understands progress and development in all its contadictions. When applied to history it teaches us deep lessons about the development of human society which counteract the reactionary and idealist idea that 'history is just one damned thing after another'.  In this talk from the latest Revolution Festival, Jack Tye Wilson, RCP Central Committee member, fleshes out the Marxist view of history. If you want to learn more on this topic we would reccomend What is Marxism, for those starting out, as well as Marx's triliogy on France for those who are more experienced.
