| A) Submission of written work should begin with evaluation of the following components:? Who wrote or created the source? If the author is unknown or anonymous, what sort of person does the author appear to be? An observer, participant or eyewitness? A later historian? (This will establish whether it is a primary or secondary source). Are there any clues to the identity of the author in the source itself? Are there signs of the author’s social class, political position, and attitudes toward the subject of the source? ?What is the source? Is it a history by a modern historian and therefore a secondary source? Or is it a primary source from the past? Is so, what kind of primary source? Is it an engraved stone, a poem, a love letter, a diary entry, a chapter from an ancient book of philosophy, a prayer? ?Where does the source come from? China? India? The United States? France? Paris? Has it traveled from one place to another, or has it always been in the same place? ?When was it created? If it is writing, was it revised? ?Why was it created?
