How do historians interpret primary and secondary sources?

History
2 answers:
UkoKoshka [18]3 years ago

Primary sources are firsthand sources that were during the time period of the incident or artifacts for instance. Historians interpret primary sources as firsthand sources with information that could show different perspectives and hidden information that has not been said by other sources (secondary).

Secondary sources are documents or sources that relate to the incident. Historians interpret secondary sources as general and typically non-biased information, however, depending on where some sources were published, this can be different.

Hope this helps!

The historian's primary source is evidence from the past. A secondary source uses evidence from primary sources to try to figure out the past. The historian's dream is to find fresh evidence from the past and, from that evidence, to create a fresh interpretation of history.

Explanation: conflict has led to many geographical shifts mainly in Europe. You have WW1 examples which resulted in many conflicts given all the violence that there was. You have treaties made without other countries’ consents like the Treaty of Versailles. You also have the creation of new countries such as Poland, Yugoslavia, Lithuania, Latvia, the separation or independence of Hungary from Austria. Those small countries surrounding Russia were brought up to stop the spread of communism, since communism was spreading like a “plague” therefore communism wouldn’t reach the powers. Then you had Poland which was established and was used in other to block Russia’s attempt of fighting for land from the regions of the great powers. Poland was there as a sort of blockade between Russia and Germany, Britain, and France. Hope that is clearer:)
