Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from Source Studies on the French Revolution: The Royal Session of June 23, 1789 The common practice in college classes in history is to assign each semester a subject for a paper. The student is supposed to know how to collect his material, to criticise it, analyze it, establish the facts, make an outline and write a narrative. Moreover, as a rule, he is allowed no time for this work, but the paper is supposed to be ready at the end of the semester. The results obtained in this way never can be satisfactory. Students who do not know how to conduct an investigation in history should do their first work under the guidance of an instructor. It is for this purpose that this collection of sources has been made. It is intended to serve a purpose somewhat different from that of the collections now in use in the schools. Its purpose is to place in the hands of the student a number of sources dealing with the same topic, thus making it possible for him by actual experience to acquaint himself with the process by which the historian, weighing a mass of evidence, some of it contradictory, arrives finally at the historical fact. Such training can not be obtained from the study of a collection made up of sources that do not record the same data. In my beginners´ course in European history, one classroom hour a week for two semesters is given to the preparation of the paper based upon this collection of sources. The work is introduced by a series of elementary lectures on historical method, the students being required to take notes, to rewrite the notes in the form of a development and to make an outline of method. The source books are then brought into the class and the instructor criticises the first source, the class taking notes. The students are then expected to take up the remaining sources, classifying, localizing and analyzing each in turn.
