Writing Notes: Evaluating Sources in History

Listed below are questions to evaluate and measure the credibility of primary and secondary sources.

Reasonable

Do the author’s claims or statements seem plausible?

Does anything the author states seem outlandish or exaggerated?

What does not make sense logically? Why does this material not make sense?

Trustworthy

What makes the author credible (e.g., credentials, expertise, skills)?

Was the author present at the time of the historical event?

How soon after the historical event did the author write about it?

Does any of the historical information sound biased?

Are any of the author’s conclusions biased?

Does a museum, archive, or historian provide any criticisms of the source?

Accurate

Do the dates, people, and places of an event match across primary sources?

Do primary sources describe the event in similar ways?

If information differs among primary sources, what might account for that difference?

Does the secondary source describe a historical event or person using multiple primary sources?

Verifiable

Do multiple accounts of a historical event exist, or is it only one?

Do the people providing the historical accounts agree about what happened? If not, about what do the accounts disagree?

Does the secondary source acknowledge the existence of multiple historical accounts?

Does the secondary source objectively consider the value of each historical account?

Does the secondary source cite the work of other historians or experts?

Note: History is full of conflict and controversy, so historical figures may disagree over what happened in the past. Therefore, keep in mind that even if historical accounts of an event differ, the accounts may still be considered credible. When multiple, relatively credible accounts exist, evaluate each perspective fairly to understand the full historical context surrounding an event.

Did you see Jamie's tweet? At least they know that Franco and China together is a mistake

I just saw it, honestly, I couldn’t have said it better myself, and I’m happy to see that he’s speaking out on the subject because I know that sometimes fans in the comments can be overwhelming (Maria, for example, disabled her Instagram comments because she got tired of receiving criticism).

What reassures me, too, and what I was saying yesterday, is that right now, the most important thing is Franco’s career, especially for this weekend!

But the ‘everyone makes mistakes and he will learn from them,’ aka he practically called China Suarez a ‘mistake,’ makes me smile, because he’s there as a manager but also as Franco’s ‘father figure’ and won’t abandon him.

So LOUDER, JAMIE, THEY DIDN’T HEAR YOU IN THE BACK! 📣🗣️

I can't stop thinking about james students making silly jokes about kevin just to play with him 😭 and ofc james is getting picked up after work by his cool boyfriend

AHHHHHH yesss yesss!!!! i have this little scene in my head of the kids finding out and then asking james a million and one questions about kevin and then kevin shows up at the school to pick him up (like you said) and makes james' life even more difficult bc now they really won't leave him alone and then he makes a deal with them that if they sit still and listen in class and DON'T bug him about kevin day all the time, then kevin will chaperone a school trip to the local museum with them and then !! cue the museum trip and kevin explaining historical backstory to the kids about the museum exhibitions and they're all looking at him with wide eyes bc "wowww kevin day loves history too!!!" or they're like "did mr. c teach you that??" and kevin just huffs out a laugh. and all the while james is watching from a distance unable to stop himself from smiling !!

The NB column in the Times Literary Supplement, signed at the foot by J.C., occupied the back page of the paper for thirteen years. For a decade before that, it was in the middle pages. That's roughly 60,000 words a year for twenty-three years. The purpose of the initials was not to disguise the author, but to offer complete freedom to the persona.

J.C. was irreverent and whimsical. The column punctured pomposity, hypocrisy and cant in the literary world - as one correspondent put it: 'skewering contemporary absurdities, whether those resulting from identity politics or from academic jargon'.

Readers came to expect reports from the Basement Labyrinth, where all executive decisions are made, and where annual literary prizes were judged and administered. These included the Most Unoriginal Title Prize - for a new book bearing a title that had been used by several other authors (eg, The Kindness of Strangers); the Incomprehensibility Prize, for impenetrable academic writing; the Jean-Paul Sartre Prize for Prize Refusal, and the All Must Have Prizes Prize, for authors who have never won anything.

Readers of NB by J.C. will find an off-beat guide to our cultural times. The book begins in 2001 and proceeds to 2020. The substantial Introduction offers a history of the TLS itself from birth through the precarious stages of its adaptation and survival.
