| (1 cr.) The practice of history is founded on the ability
to write clearly. In this intensive writing
seminar, students are introduced to the
fundamentals of historical writing, including the
basics of grammar and sentence structure, the
construction of good paragraphs and the crafting
of a historical narrative. Since writing and
thinking are intimately linked, students also
practice the art of historical thinking, including
the development of historical arguments, the
critical use of historical sources and the
appropriate use of historical documentation using
the Chicago Manual of Style. For history majors
only.
