Created for sophomore History majors and minors, the Historian's Craft will provide an introduction to the ways in which historians conceptualize the past, conduct research in primary sources, and write well, through the study of good historical prose. The centerpiece of the course is a research paper through which students will learn the varieties of approaches historians take as they formulate questions, select sources, analyze documents, take notes, and draft, edit, and complete research papers. (One course).
