May. 31st, 2004 12:10 amAmazing, ain't it? How, with two very similar starting theses, two completely different papers can be written?
I speak of this because I was looking over old work, specifically on Perry and the bakumatsu, because, for various and sundry reasons, my mind was brought back to those papers. Let's take a look at the intro paragraphs to the paper on Perry and his methods, and the paper on everything that followed Perry's success, up to Tokugawa Keiki's resignation.
( Perry )
That was written in early 2002. And then, in late 2003 (almost two years later):
( Everything Else )
To me, at least, they seem very similar (which was an accident). And yet the papers' contents after that are so very different.
Huh.
