Question: Read Primary Source Reading 1 very carefully, taking notes as you do. 3. A half a page-word critical analysis as a well-written analytical essay structured in a logical order and written in appropriate academic language and that addresses all of the following:
a. Summarize the primary source, explaining what the document is about, who you think probably wrote it, when it was likely written and what the main message or theme of the document is. Be sure to provide specific information that supports each of these claims.
b. Contextualize the primary source within the broader historical events described in the textbook. How does the primary source relate to the larger historical narrative?
c. Analyze the perspective of the author: What biases or viewpoints can you identify? How might the author's background, position, or beliefs have influenced their account?
d. Compare and contrast the primary source with the textbook's account: Are there any discrepancies? What might account for these differences? How does this primary source enhance, complicate, or challenge the textbook's narrative?
