An example of history I loved was in a public policy course. My teacher was great and talked about the founding of America - and how much propaganda and the art of words played into it. He went over specific strategies, and I took from it in a real way the importance of rhetoric. It's something that's stuck with me.There's maybe 3-4 history classes in my school I'm interested in, though.

Also, can I read your paper, and/or have more resources on what you're talking about? It sounds fascinating.
