How does bash interpret tilde character?



About 5 years ago the response I got was:
Use the 'history' command, or 'cat ~/.bash_history'.

I have two questions:
   1. in context, what does " ~/ " mean?
   2. what reference would answer a similar question?
      [ NOTE BENE: The search may be more beneficial than the answer ]

TIA
