• ~1,500 words essay on the problems with constructing Holocaust history
• received an 18/20
• had to elaborate not just on the problematic methods of constructing history (like ommiting information, making up facts, etc) but also how this affects real historians - think of it like this: by challenging history, Holocaust deniers invalidate the research that real historians have undertaken, which undermines their works and makes people learning about history distrust them. Just an interesting insight and something my teacher said I could have elaborated on
Hope this helps. Good luck M.HIS students.
