Questions About Controversy

In this blog post I will begin the preparation for the next assignment, in which I will create my own act of public speech based on a controversy I have previously written about.
I have chosen to go with the controversy on Pompeii's collapse. It interested me a great deal, and I'd like to get a chance to learn more about it.
