What possible Essay topics can I research for a "Da Vinci Code" research paper?
Try researching how people's perceptions of history can be influenced by popular culture. Dan Brown insisted (at first) that the historical claims in his novel were "all true". But historians and art experts quickly dismissed his claims as junk. Despite this, many of Brown's readers became convinced that his novel was well-researched and that they were learning factual information about history and art from his novel. The link below has lots of information about what Brown claimed was factual and why he was wrong and its Bibliography page should help you with sources.
Reply:Much of the book centers around the history of the Holy Grail. Research some of the MANY theories of what ever happened to it.
Reply:Hoaxes and the effect they have on others. Should be a lot of resources just on line.





Might also look into conspiracy theories.
