Introduction to Primary Sources
• Primary sources (documents or objects) are original materials that have not been altered.
• Primary sources were written or created during the time period under study.
• Primary sources provide first-hand testimony or direct evidence concerning a topic. – These sources are typically created by eye-witnesses or
recorders who personally experienced the events or conditions being documented.
Primary Source Examples
• ORIGINAL DOCUMENTS like diaries, speeches, manuscripts, letters, interviews, news film footage, autobiographies or memoirs, and official records.
• CREATIVE WORKS like poetry, drama, novels, music, art • RELICS OR ARTIFACTS like pottery, weapons, furniture,
clothing, and even buildings.
• Examples: Civil War photography, the Constitution, Native American pottery, Uncle Tom’s Cabin by Harriet Beecher Stowe, Lincoln’s Gettysburg Address
Vs. Secondary Sources
• Secondary sources interpret and analyze primary sources. They are one or more steps removed from the actual event or time period.
• Secondary sources are not evidence, but commentary on and discussion of evidence.
• Secondary sources may have pictures, quotes or graphics of primary sources included in them.
• Examples: PUBLICATIONS like history textbooks, magazine articles, book reviews, other criticisms or commentaries of an original work, and encyclopedias
