This is an essay for my History class. It is an analysis/close reading of a primary document that will relate to my final project for the class. The topic of the final project is "The effects of the Armenian genocide today and how it is still an ongoing issue." You will need to pick out a primary source (from the internet) to talk about in the essay and make sure it can relate to this topic. You will have to make sure to talk about the primary source and then further explain how it connects to my topic which is the effects of the Armenian genocide to this day and how it is still an ongoing issue. Here are further instructions for the essay: Please submit a analysis and close reading of a primary document of your choice that you will be using in your portion of the final project. The student can use any of the primary documents on the syllabus, or choose one that is relevant to the course material and to the topic of their chosen final project. Identify the primary source you are using, and explain what type of source it is: example a petition to the Sultan, A letter to from a merchant, an excerpt from a memoir… etc, and place it in historical context. If possible Identify the writer. Give a short summary of what the document is about, or what the purpose of the document is. Do a close reading of the document, taking into consideration bias, tone, voice , audience, author, and give your analysis. Conclude your paper. The paper does not necessarily have to be in the above order, but needs to include all points. Be sure to refer to the text in your analysis, and back up any claims you make.
