Writing and History

HIST 190 fulfills the College Writing 2 requirement and builds on the work of English 110 (College Writing 1), in order to teach the conventions of writing in the discipline of History with special attention paid to problems of evidence, argument, and authority. Concentrating on one historical theme, students consider a discrete set of primary and secondary sources and practice analyzing sources and constructing arguments in clear, correct, and formal academic prose.
