TMA3

Visible to anyone in the world

13/1/12

Submitted TMA, but not happy with it, think I should have used a different interpretation of propaganda rather than the the modern one I have used...should have used OCCC version. Damn,damn...oh well a leaning curve and onto the Romans now!!!

well ... I put a definition in the intro and then completely ignored it

and omitted the rather relevant bit about "no such thing as proper propaganda in ancient times" so what was the classical greek equivalent??? in a dictionary???

ooo but a nice bit of persuasive speech,  to get the polis on your side- get votes for your play at the dionysia, get mates on the city council to accept your planning proposition (if you throw in a seat or 2 at the city ground/odeion); go on CBB/in jungle/strictly/ get on the box at the funeral speeches - oooo the opportunities are endless ...

on later reflection and following bacon sarnie discussions - why is it so difficult to write what is so easy to articulate??

mmm narrative waffle (without maple syrup/ HP sauce) = my TMA 3

how u finding the romans???
