haven't actually formualted a question as such, but my focus points are the historicity of king arthur and (obviously) the nature of debate/how it's changed. pretty common choice, but i think i can do a good enough job so that it stands out from the rest

I've finished mine.

I examined how historiographical approaches to Vichy France's involvement in the Holocaust have changed since 1945.

I've finally finished!
I did: The use and misuse of history: problems in the biographical representation of Pope Alexander VI.
It's due week 3 next term, so there's still time to read it over another million times.

I'm doing an investigation into Josef Mengele's involvement in the implementation of the Nazi's "Final Solution" and the guilt to which he is assigned.
It's pretty interesting...but Ihave to make sure I make it clear it's an explanation rather than a justification for his behaviour.

I'm evaluating Tolstoy's theory of history as expressed in War and Peace, specifically in the second epilogue
