One of the most fascinating smaller streams of psychology in my opinion is historical ontology; understanding the world, whether it be physics, art, philosophy, or the mind I think requires us to look back at what came before. Moreover, in the realm of science in particular, everything new is built either on a historical foundation or a shift away from the previous norms.
