Description
This course is primarily for the history major and is intended to introduce the student to the various types of history devised, past and present, the major themes behind most historical work, as well as the different types of sources and methodologies used by historians to conduct research and produce scholarly writing. Students will be instructed in how to recognize biases in historical writing, as well as how to otherwise evaluate source materials. There is an emphasis on primary source material, but secondary materials and the works of important historians will also be examined.
