Research Project for WOH2022 and EUH2000<\/p>\n
SCOPE OF RESEARCH PROJECT<\/b><\/p>\n
1. Students must then choose an event* of historical importance.
2. WOH 2022 – Students must focus on a country other than the United States
3. For EUH 2000 – The event must fall sometime before 1300
4. For WOH 2022- Option A -The event must fall between the years of 1500 and 2000.
5. For WOH 2022- Option B – The event must fall between 1800 and 2000.<\/p>\n
ESSAY OPTIONS<\/b><\/p>\n
Option A: A Historiographical Analysis. (EUH 2000 only option)<\/b>
Students will research how their chosen historical event is conveyed and analyzed by historians who have covered the topic over time. <\/p>\n
Methodology:<\/b> Every topic has its own historiography, that is the body of work by different historians that have covered the topic. Since historians often differ on the \u201cwhys\u201d and \u201chows\u201d of history, every historian must account for the way in which their interpretation differs from that of other historians who have addressed the topic. This process is known as the Historiographical Analysis. Historiographical sources are always Secondary Sources, but not all secondary sources are Historiographical. For a source to be considered Historiographical it must be written by a historian on the topic and published by a credible source such as a peer-reviewed journals or a university press. (e.g. The American Historical Association Journal and Yale University Press.)<\/p>\n
Option B: Primary Source Analysis: Newspaper Coverage. (not available to EUH2000)<\/b>
Students will research how their chosen historical event was covered by newspapers at the time of the event.<\/p>\n
Methodology: <\/b>Newspaper sources are typically considered Primary Sources as long as they are reasonably dated to the timeframe of when the historical event was considered a current event, typically within a week. Who is the author, who is the audience, what kinds of appeals if any are made to the reader? Is the article a news report, an opinion piece, or a regularly appearing column? Compared to your secondary sources, are there contradictions? Are the problems, if any, in these articles intentional? Often, not all of the facts are known at the time of publication, is there information now known that would have made a difference. How are the article\u2019s sources identified?<\/p>\n
