Paper Assignment 3 for History 121

Assignment Sheet for Paper 3

Due:  Wednesday, May 10th at 5 pm
Format:  Electronic (as with paper 2, you must give this to me in digital form)

Content:  Go to the website:
http://www.fordham.edu/halsall/mod/modsbooknew.html and find a primary source to use.  Research the historical background of that primary source, explain what’s going on at the time, and analyze the source itself.  Why is somebody writing it?  What is their point of view?  What do they hope to gain from writing the document?

Form:  4-5 pages, citations and a bibliography with 5 sources (only two web sources).
