What does each offer with relation to understanding the history of the Inquisition and in what ways does the nature of each source shape its usefulness?

Choose one of the two primary sources and one of the four secondary sources listed below:

Primary sources (for both see course reserves site, “The Witchcraft Trials of Paula de Eguiluz”)

1. Excerpts from Inquisition trial of Paula de Eguiluz

2. Excerpts from Inquistion trial of Luiz da Costa

Secondary sources (links to these journal articles are posted in Weeks 11-14 readings folder)

1. Wadsworth, “Jurema and Batuque: Indians, Africans, and the Inquisition …”

2. Redekopp, “Queering Sodomy: Interpreting the Trial of Luiz da Costa”

3. Surtz, “Morisco Women, Written Texts, and the Valencia Inquisition”

4. Goodman, “Intellectual Life under the Spanish Inquisition”

Paper assignment: In a properly formatted, short paper of 1,200-1,300 words, not including footnotes, apply your understanding of the uses of and distinctions between primary and secondary sources to a comparison of the two sources you have selected as sources of knowledge for the history of the Inquisition. What does each offer with relation to understanding the history of the Inquisition and in what ways does the nature of each source shape its usefulness? In thinking about primary and secondary sources you should revisit “How to Read a Primary Source” and might also wish to consult this University of Maryland website, which further clarifies the distinctions by adding a third category: tertiary sources

How can you refine your question or topic even further, now that you have described the findings?

Assignment 3: Review Paper—Draft of Literature Findings

Evaluate the evidence. Create a draft of the findings of the articles you have selected and how they contribute to our knowledge of this problem. Be sure to address each of the following items in your draft:

1.  Discuss the strengths and weaknesses of each piece.

2.  If the articles talk to each other (that is, if they support or contrast with one another), explain how and why.

3.  What does the evidence tell us?

4.  Is there another possible explanation you can think of?  Based on what you have read, what is your hypothesis?  In other words, what is your explanation for the findings?

5.  How can you refine your question or topic even further, now that you have described the findings?

Your draft should be double-spaced and in 12 point, Times New Roman font with normal one-inch margins, written in APA style, and free of typographical and grammatical errors.  It should include a title page with a running head and a reference page. The body of the paper should be at least 5-6 pages in length. Submit your paper to the M2: Assignment 3 Dropbox by Wednesday, November 18, 2015.

You will submit your Review Paper next week, so be sure to incorporate the feedback you receive from your instructor on this assignment into your final paper for next week. You may also want to review the following documents that are available in the Doc Sharing area of the course:
