Primary Source Analysis PaperInstructions for Primary Source AnalysisPrimary Source Analysis due: 6 March (worth 15%)primary-source-analysis-rubricPrimary sources are sources created in the historical period being researched and by historical actors themselves.  (Contrast this with secondary sources, which are after-the-fact scholarly analyses of the past.)  For this assignment, you will submit to me a 2-3 page analysis of that source along with instructions as to how I can access your source (or a copy of the source attached to your essay). PLEASE NOTE: You must incorporate a tertiary source and at least one secondary source to substantiate your analysis.Keep in mind that primary sources can come in many forms.  They can be maps, diaries, letters, memoirs, newspaper articles, government documents, posters, pamphlets, photographs, advertisements, paintings, films, novels, songs—just to name a few.  If your source comes in a non-textual form (such as a film), please submit it to me in the form appropriate for its genre (such as a video or DVD, etc.).The purpose of this assignment is to work on how to analyze a primary source.  Your goal is to analyze your source excerpt as deeply and as thoroughly as possible.  Do not simply provide a general summary or overview of your source.  Think concretely and criticallyabout its content, its historical context, the historical cultural values that shape it, and its relevance to your research.  What are the author’s tone, style, and argument?  What are its strengths and weaknesses?  Read between the lines to discover its biases and assumptions.  Depending on the nature of the primary source you select, the source may be as short as a paragraph or two or as long as dozens of pages.In structuring your Primary Source Analysis Essay, you should address the following questions.  Do not simply list answers to the questions below. Rather, you must write your paper in essay form.  It should have an introduction, several body paragraphs, and a conclusion.   You do not need to address the questions in order, but be sure that you address the questions that are relevant to your source in your essay.  Your essay must be a polished piece of writing.
