| Summary, etc |
"Primary sources are not only the very basis of historical research, but are also widely used in undergraduate teaching as away to introduce students to voices from the past. The contributors to this book explore various traditions in source-criticism, explain the different ways documents can be read and use exciting examples from their own research to suggest the insights (and also difficulties) texts might offer.<br/>The volume includes chapters on opinion polls, surveillance reports, testimony, and court files in addition to more traditional genres such as letters, memoranda, diaries, novels, newspapers, political speeches and autobiography. Chapters in this unique book also give an overview of both traditional and new methodological approaches to the use of primary documents. In addition, the introduction offers an accessible checklist suggesting some of the most important steps for interpreting historical sources. <br/>Taking examples of sources from many European countries and the USA, this is the perfect companion for every student of history who wants to engage with primary sources."-- Publisher's description. |
