Again we ask the question why and the answer takes us more deeply into the causes of the events under consideration. As we probe further, of course, the answer becomes more difficult and more complex. The problems discussed earlier--- a theory of motivation and the selection of facts --- begin to become increasingly important, and disagreements among historians will begin to emerge. But the potential for another kind of disagreement also arises. The further back or the deeper the historian goes, the more factors there are to be considered and the more tenuous the connection between cause and effect becomes. Historians may disagree about the point at which to begin their analysis, that is, about the location of a point beyond which the causal connection becomes so tenuous as to be meaningless.
