The main theoretical frameworks for the analysis has consisted of the typology for use of history as presented by professor Klas-Göran Karlsson together with selected theories connected to history consciousness, not the least the model presented by Bernard Eric Jensen. The result of the analysis shows frequent examples where the use of history and history consciousness is present in the rhetoric used in the source material.
