The title is a quotation from Karl Marx and comes from the opening sentences of The Eighteenth Brumaire of Louis Bonaparte (1852), which read: "Hegel remarks somewhere that all great world-historic facts and personages appear, so to speak, twice. He forgot to add: the first time as tragedy, the second time as farce."
