Miksi mä en opiskele mitään niin jännittävää kuin historiaa? Siitä olisi vaikka mitä kursseja, kuten:


SATAN, SORCERY & SABBATHS: WITCH-HUNTING IN EARLY MODERN EUROPE, C. 1450-1700

tai

SEX AND VIOLENCE IN COLD CLIMATES

tai


MEN, WOMEN AND EUNUCHS: GENDER AND IDENTITY IN LATE ANTIQUITY

joka kuulostaa kaikin puolin muutenkin lupaavalta:
