Hello, I'm looking for someone to help me with an assignment. This assignment has two parts to it.

Instructions for assignment:

1. List your two chosen societies or civilizations. Include the time period you will cover for each society or civilization.

The theme for this research paper is Justice

I need a primary source. And a secondary source. Please no online articles and do not use any encyclopedias

• review the LIB101 Research Guide: Library Resources and Primary SourcesLinks to an external site..

• The purpose of this activity is to help you develop your library research skills, so you can locate primary sources, books, and journal articles related to your Week 5 Comparative Human Experience final project. You are required to find two sources that you can use for the final project. Your first source must be a primary source and your second source must be a scholarly, secondary source. (Tip! Your primary source should be one of the works of history, literature, philosophy, theology, art, architecture, or music that expresses your chosen theme in one of the societies you will discuss in the final project). Remember to download your sources, if possible, or save the reference somewhere safe as you will be using these sources again as a part of your Final Project Preparation assignment this week. Do not select tertiary sources such as encyclopedia articles for this exercise, as they do not meet the research requirements for the final project.

• This activity will also help you focus on analyzing sources by writing annotations. What is an annotation? An annotation is a brief written commentary on a scholarly book, chapter, journal article, or primary source that summarizes its central points and main argument. In the case of primary sources, you will identify key elements of the source that will help you analyze its significance.

• For your initial posting, use the Annotated Bibliography Builder TemplateLinks to an external site. as a guide for creating a reference and annotation for each of your two sources. Post your annotated bibliography in the discussion forum for your classmates to view.

What to Include in Your Article, Chapter, or Web Article Annotation

1. Explain what makes your source scholarly:

a. What do you know about the author? Do a Google search on the author; find their biography at the place

they teach, and look for their Curriculum Vitae (an academic resume). What information establishes them

as a credible expert on this topic?

b. What are some examples of scholarly sources that are referenced and cited in this article, chapter, or

web article?

2. In your own words, what is the author’s thesis or the central focus? What would you answer if you described

what you read to someone, and then they asked “So what’s the point?”

What to Include in Your Primary Source Annotation

1. Explain what makes your source primary:

a. Was the source created close to the time of the event?

2. In a sentence or two, what do we know about this author (e.g., dates, social or marital status, relevant places of

residence, etc.)? You might need to get more information about the author!

a. Did the original author have firsthand knowledge of the subject at hand? Or, did he or she report what

others saw and heard?

3. What do we know about the source? When, where, and/or why was it created? What type of source is it (e.g.,

treatise, law code, letter, journal, etc.)?

a. For what purpose was the piece originally written?

b. For whom was the piece originally directed? Did the writer produce the source for personal use, for one

or more individuals, or for a large audience? Was the source meant to be public or private?

c. What were the author’s motivations for writing? Did the writer wish to inform or persuade others? Did

the writer have reasons to be honest or dishonest? Any ulterior motives? What might they have been?

4. Why is this source important?

issues closely associated with this source?

c. What impact might the source have had in context of its time and/or place?

d. How would you use this source as a piece of historical evidence?

i. What does this source tell us?

ii. What strengths does this source have as historical evidence?

iii. What limitations does this source have as historical evidence?

iv. What questions does it leave unanswered?

v. What other sorts of evidence might support it?

5. What specific part of your week 5 Comparative Human Experience final project could this primary source

support? Why?
