Von der hinteren Coverseite
Keeping pace with advancements in the digital age, this new edition of Essaying the Past: How to Read, Write and Think about History features timely updates and enhancements to its indispensible “nuts and bolts” approach to producing well written historical essays. Part research manual, part practical study guide, and part introduction to the study of history itself, Essaying the Past offers concise guidance on all aspects of historical research and writing. Cullen’s popular text maintains its sharp focus on writing fundamentals, including ways to frame questions, develop strong introductions and topic sentences, choose good evidence, and enter the crucial process of revision. A new chapter examines the process of transitioning arguments from rough first draft to a polished final version. Appendices address topical issues such as plagiarism, proper referencing of blogs, and the possibilities and limitations of the Internet. A key resource for all historical writers, Essaying the Past also helps develop the crucial analytical skills that facilitate independent thought—a process that extends beyond history writing and into many areas of life.
