Wanted: Advanced history lesson
There weren’t all that many cinematics in Season 1, so just compiling those would leave with little more than you got now – and far more disjointed. Unlike the Personal Story, Season 1 and Season 2 are greatly lacking in cinematics – which was half of the complaint about Season 2 since it so heavily featured spoken dialogue from NPCs (which is unskippable).
The current cinematic and talking to Ela afterwards covers all the major things, which was the intent. Bobby Stein stated that the recap only covers the facts important around Scarlet and the biconics so as to explain the characters and events leading to Season 2, and to keep it short.
Rather than working on proper summaries, I’d rather they put the effort to bringing Season 1 as permanent content, which they’ve stated to have full intent on doing but don’t want to divert resources from HoT’s development.
Stop treating GW2 as a single story. Each Season and expansion should be their own story.

I logged in last night but did not get an email from Arena Net about the new History Lesson of Living World Season 1. Not sure why, but it doesnt show up in my story tab either. I hope its a bug
The mail only gets delivered once Season 1 History Lesson is activated (located under Scarlet’s War in the Story Journal). This happens automatically after you complete Victory or Death, the final Personal Story step. You can also manually select and activate it, but you need to be level 80 in order to do this.
If you’re still having issues, I suggest posting a screenshot or contacting Customer Service. Thanks.
