Che Guevara Major Project

I'm thinking about covering Che Guevara and the Revolutionists in my major project for next year,
any ideas?

My range is wayyyy too broad, so i'm looking to narrow it down a little, and find a solid question.
help much ? :hammer:

let me know :]

Well i'd stick to historiography.... so perhaps how he has been portrayed during a certain event?

If you did the guerilla revolution, perhaps see how the revolution has been portrayed through history :)

My friend did a major work assessing his social policies and whether they were successful or not. It worked out.

He came to the conclusion that teenagers have his face on their shirts not because Che was some magnificent ruler, but of the myths surrounding his cult personality.

I think I am going to do Hiroshima and Nagasaki and different perspectives of the reasons behind the bombings. Do you guys think it has been too overdone?

its a touchy subject,
but there is plenty that you could cover in it,
because there is alot of websites and source books on it.
will you be unbiased in your work, like when you look at the bombings will you lean toward a certain point of view?

yeahh, i dont think its too overdone, you just have to be careful what you look at, and exactly what information you get and where from.
:rolleyes:

Hey my friend is doing che guevara. I am jealous of you guys. It's a inspired topic. Stick with it. Maybe u could narrow it down by focusing on his execution or different perspectives of his legacy and impact on the world today or something. :cool:

che guevara is a very common topic, so try to study it from a perspective that hasn't been done too much because chances are your teachers have already read a lot of essays on the same topic

Hey guys I need some help:

I was thinking of doing:
The shroud of turin (as an historical controversy) but I'm afraid that it's too scientific. Most of the info surrounds scientific research on the shroud and different techniques. What do u think?
OR
different perspectives/portrayals of the Medici (for example as artistic patrons and ___)
OR
Identity of Shakespeare?

I'd do Shakespeare, just because it is the most appealing to me right now.

my friend is doing the controversy surrounding the death of the Nepalese royal family a few years ago.
apparently the son killed the whole family, but there is a lot of debate surrounding it.

its pretty interesting:)
