Guidelines for Primary Source Paper
Primary sources are extremely important, not only in history, but in many other fields. It offers a
window into the past, an inside view into a certain time period. It will require you to be more
critical and analytical and give you a deeper understanding of what that document meant during
that time period. There are times that a source can have a hidden meaning and you will have to
read between the lines. Primary sources can come in different forms. They can be photographs,
memoirs, paintings, letters, newspaper articles, films, government documents, etc.
I do not want just a summary or an overview of the primary source but also an analysis. For ex.,
if you read a slave narrative like the Diary of a Slave Girl by Harriet Jacobs, you can bring in
information that not only supports Jacobs’s narrative but also expounds on it. While you are
reading and analyzing your source, you will be thinking about the time period and the historical
significance of your primary source. Think about the author’s biases and assumptions. You can
bring in secondary sources and other information to round out your work.
