sselinokcu Posted February 19, 2017 Report Share Posted February 19, 2017 Hey everyone, (I didn't know whether to post this on the EE thread or this one) So I'm doing my EE on History and I want to investigate 20th-century cult movements. I want to focus on Jim Jones's cult, People's Temple, which has been all over the media after the Jonestown mass suicide. However, I wonder if doing my extended essay on the rise and failure of only one religious cult would be acceptable. I'm pretty sure I can find enough to write, but do you think I should focus on 20th century cult movements in general instead? Thanks a lot Reply Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thanks a lot Yes, it would be completely acceptable to focus on only one cult movement. If you wish to focus on more than one, maybe you could do a compare and contrast of two different cult movements. Examine the impact of the movements and all that. Focusing on more than 2 at a time would result in your essay being a bit too unfocused. Hope this helps a bit. Cheers. Reply Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
