From Syllabus: Analytical Paper (15%): Students will create an argument using three primary sources from one set of readings. Paragraph #1 will introduce the argument and include the thesis. Paragraphs #2 through 4 will each concern one primary source. Paragraph #5 will conclude the essay. Papers should have one-inch margins, be double-spaced, and be in 12-font. Cover pages are optional. Papers should also be between 500 and 750 words. Topic sentences should relate back to the thesis. Quotations should be two lines or less and must be followed with analysis which proves the thesis. Historians use Chicago-style which includes footnotes or endnotes and not parenthetical referencing (also known as MLA). Since all primary sources will be from class reading, no footnotes or endnotes are necessary. Please include the title of each primary source within the text, such as "Regarding Primary Source,…" • Paragraph #1 – Your thesis • P#2 – First primary source (topic sentence or how you will use this source to prove your thesis; evidence and analysis) • P#3 – Second primary source • P#4 – Third primary source • P#5 - Conclusion Some Ideas for Theses: • Native American Readings – How did Native world view affect their lives? • New England Readings – What did New Englanders believe about themselves? How did they prove they were chosen? • American Revolution Readings – How did Americans live out revolutionary ideals during the American Revolution? • Market Revolution/Women Readings – How did women fight injustice? • Slavery Readings – How did slaves fight back? OR How did slaveowners justify slavery? Please do not attempt to cover both topics in one paper. Focus on one so it will be a deeper discussion. More Instructions To Help You: Analytical Essay (15%): Students will create an argument using three primary sources from one topic (such as industrialization or the 1930s). These are not just slides in a powerpoint but an actual reading. This is also not about lecture. This is your original analysis of three primary sources from one topic. Please read these directions several times because your grade very much depends on how well you follow these requirements. Give yourself plenty of time to do this assignment. It's challenging but I think rewarding. ? Please keep quotations to one or two lines and analyze every quote used. ? Also please keep personal bias to a minimum. This is not an ethics paper. No preaching please. Passionate language is word-filler; hard evidence from the sources is much preferred. ? Please try to come up with a thesis more critically demanding than African Americans or Immigrants or Native Americans were treated poorly. No one is just a victim nor would any of us want to be remembered that way. How did they fight back or find success or fulfillment in their lives? ? ? Please don't argue that throughout all of mankind's history, this is the one moment that people began to fight back. That statement shows ignorance of world history and is ethnocentric (meaning we as Americans have the answers). Please do not try to end with some big comparison to today (I think that distracts from your main point and is very difficult to prove). The paper should be typed, double-spaced, with 1" margins with its pages numbered. The following information should either be on a cover sheet or on the first page of your paper: 1. 2. 3. 4. the title of your paper your name the date The analytical essay should be at least two pages long (500 words) and no more than three pages long. (I am stricter on the minimum than on the maximum page requirement.) 5. Please proofread your paper several times, and perhaps have a friend proofread it as well. Typographical, spelling, and grammatical errors are distracting and, if excessive, could hurt your grade. 6. Since these papers are short, please do not include quotations that are longer than two to three lines. Be sure to give credit to the source of the quotation or idea by citing the source in the body. Please do not use MLA or parentheses. Just list the source in your content as follows: For example, in "The Tale of Wountie …" or As can be seen in "The Flapper,"… 7. Papers received after the due date will be penalized a full letter grade for the first day late and two letter grades for the second day late. 8. When writing your essay, organize it by including the following three parts: the introduction, the body, and the conclusion. 9. The introduction should include a thesis statement which tells the reader exactly what you intend to discuss and which outlines the general argument you will make in your paper. This is the most important part of the essay. A well-defined thesis statement which is then explained in the body of your essay equals a good paper. 10. The body is a presentation of evidence completed in an organized fashion. You must prove your point through evidence. Don't just include quotations. Take the time to explain why you chose this particular piece of evidence and how it ties into the bigger picture. To present an organized argument, be sure to include topic sentences for each paragraph which tie into your thesis statement. 11. The conclusion is where you summarize your argument. 12. One possible way to organize your analytical essay follows: Paragraph #1: Your thesis should consider all three primary sources. Paragraph #2-#5: Each paragraph will analyze one primary source and its contribution to your argument. Paragraph #6: Summarize and conclude. Analytical Essay Checklist _____ 1. Has a strong introductory thesis paragraph which is not about people being treated badly or how this topic relates to today. _____ 2. Has topic sentences which tie into the thesis. _____ 3. Uses one primary source for each paragraph for a total of three primary sources from the same topic. These are not powerpoint slide quotes. They need to be readings from the documents. _____ 4.

Uses one to two line quotes with analysis following (your interpretation of the quote) and does not end a paragraph with a quote.

Is 500 or a few more words long. _____ 7. Does not include the phrase "made their voices heard." _____ 8. Has correct grammar and no typos. _____ 9. Has a fifth paragraph which concludes the argument. I know this is a lot of notes but I've done this paper for years, and I know the pitfalls. But it also is the semester's best assignment of truly doing history. And you have been practicing all course-long so I know you can do this and you might even enjoy it! Please see me if you need help coming up with a thesis but talk to me only after coming up with some of your own ideas. You can do this! 1. A Model of Christian Charity By Governor John Winthrop, 1630 ...(F)ollow the counsel of Micah, to do justly, to love mercy, to walk humbly with our God. For this end, we must be knit together, in this work, as one man. We must entertain each other in brotherly affection. We must be willing to abridge ourselves of our superfluities, for the supply of others’ necessities. We must uphold a familiar commerce together in all meekness, gentleness, patience and liberality. We must delight in each other; make others’ conditions our own; rejoice together, mourn together, labor and suffer together, always having before our eyes our commission and community in the work, as members of the same body. So shall we keep the unity of the spirit in the bond of peace. The Lord will be our God, and delight to dwell among us, as His own people, and will command a blessing upon us in all our ways, so that we shall see much more of His wisdom, power, goodness and truth, than formerly we have been acquainted with. We shall find that the God of Israel is among us, when ten of us shall be able to resist a thousand of our enemies; when He shall make us a praise and glory that men shall say of succeeding plantations, "may the Lord make it like that of New England." For we must consider that we shall be as a city upon a hill. The eyes of all people are upon us. So that if we shall deal falsely with our God in this work we have undertaken, and so cause Him to withdraw His present help from us, we shall be made a story and a by-word through the world. We shall open the mouths of enemies to speak evil of the ways of God, and all professors for God's sake. We shall shame the faces of many of God's worthy servants, and cause their prayers to be turned into curses upon us till we be consumed out of the good land whither we are going. And to shut this discourse with that exhortation of Moses, that faithful servant of the Lord, in his last farewell to Israel, Deut. 30. "Beloved, there is now set before us life and death, good and evil," in that we are commanded this day to love the Lord our God, and to love one another, to walk in his ways and to keep his Commandments and his ordinance and his laws, and the articles of our Covenant with Him, that we may live and be multiplied, and that the Lord our God may bless us in the land whither we go to possess it. But if our hearts shall turn away, so that we will not obey, but shall be seduced, and worship other Gods, our pleasure and profits, and serve them; it is propounded unto us this day, we shall surely perish out of the good land whither we pass over this vast sea to possess it. Therefore let us choose life, that we and our seed may live, by obeying His voice and cleaving to Him, for He is our life and our prosperity. 2. The Examination of Mrs. Anne Hutchinson at the Court at Newton. 1637 Mr. [John] Winthrop, Governor: Mrs Hutchinson, you are called here as one of those that have troubled the peace of the commonwealth and the churches here; ...you have maintained a meeting and an assembly in your house that hath been condemned by the general assembly as a thing not tolerable nor comely in the sight of God nor fitting for your sex, and notwithstanding that was cried down you have continued the same. Therefore we have thought good to send for you to understand how things are, that if you be in an erroneous way we may reduce you that so you may become a profitable member here among us. Otherwise if you be obstinate in your course that then the court may take such course that you may trouble us no further. Therefore I would intreat you to express whether you do assent and hold in practice to those opinions and factions that have been handled in court already... Mrs. Hutchinson: I am called here to answer before you but I hear no things laid to my charge. Gov.: I have told you some already and more I can tell you. Mrs. H.: Name one, Sir. Gov.: Have I not named some already? Mrs. H.: What have I said or done? (They argue for a little while.) ...Gov.: We do not mean to discourse with those of your sex but only this: you so adhere unto them and do endeavor to set forward this faction and so you do dishonour us. Mrs. H.: I do acknowledge no such thing. Neither do I think that I ever put any dishonour upon you. (More arguing.) Gov.: We are your judges, and not you ours and we must compel you to it. Mrs. H.: ...Now if you do condemn me for speaking what in my conscience I know to be truth I must commit myself unto the Lord. (Mrs. Hutchinson explains that God spoke to her directly.) Mr. Nowel [assistant to the Court]: How do you know that was the spirit? ...Mrs. H.: By the voice of his own spirit to my soul... You have power over my body but the Lord Jesus hath power over my body and soul; and assure yourselves thus much, you do as much as in you lies to put the Lord Jesus Christ from you, and if you go on in this course you begin, you will bring a curse upon you and your posterity, and the mouth of the Lord hath spoken it. ...Gov.: I am persuaded that the revelation she brings forth is delusion. (They vote.) Gov.: Mrs. Hutchinson, the sentence of the court you hear is that you are banished from out of our jurisdiction as being a woman not fit for our society, and are to be imprisoned till the court shall send you away. Mrs. H.: I desire to know wherefore I am banished? Gov.: Say no more. The court knows wherefore and is satisfied. 3. The Sad Story of Thomas Granger ( Plimouth Plantation: 1642) “And after the time of the writing of these things befell a very sad accident of the like foul nature in this government, this very year, which I shall now relate. There was a youth whose name was Thomas Granger. He was servant to an honest man of Duxbury [note: Love Brewster, son of Pilgrim William Brewster], being about 16 or 17 years of age. (His father and mother lived at the same time at Scituate.) He was this year detected of buggery, and indicted for the same, with a mare, a cow, two goats, five sheep, two calves and a turkey. Horrible it is to mention, but the truth of the history requires it. He was first discovered by one that accidentally saw his lewd practice towards the mare. (I forbear particulars.) Being upon it examined and committed, in the end he not only confessed the fact with that beast at that time, but sundry times before and at several times with all the rest of the forenamed in his indictment. And this his free confession was not only in private to the magistrates (though at first he strived to deny it) but to sundry, both ministers and others; and afterwards, upon his indictment, to the whole Court and jury; and confirmed it at his execution. And whereas some of the sheep could not so well be known by his description of them, others with them were brought before him and he declared which were they and which were not. And accordingy he was cast by the jury and condemned, and after executed about the 8th of September, 1642. A very sad spectacle it was. For first the mare and then the cow and the rest of the lesser cattle were killed before his face, according to the law, Leviticus xx.15; and then he himself was executed. The cattle were all cast into a great and large pit that was digged of purpose for them, and no use made of any part of them.” 4. A Narrative Of The Captivity And Restauration Of Mrs. Mary Rowlandson ON the tenth of February 1675, Came the Indians with great numbers upon Lancaster: Their first coming was about Sun-rising; hearing the noise of some Guns, we looked out; several Houses were burning, and the Smoke ascending to Heaven. There were five persons taken in one house, the Father, and the Mother and a sucking Child, they knockt on the head; the other two they took and carried away alive. Their were two others, who being out of their Garison upon some occasion were set upon; one was knockt on the head, the other escaped: Another their was who running along was shot and wounded, and fell down; he begged of them his life, promising them Money (as they told me) but they would not hearken to him but knockt him in head, and stript him naked, and split open his Bowels. Another seeing many of the Indians about his Barn, ventured and went out, but was quickly shot down. There were three others belonging to the same Garison who were killed; the Indians getting up upon the roof of the Barn, had advantage to shoot down upon them over their Fortification. Thus these murtherous wretches went on, burning, and destroying before them. At length they came and beset our own house, and quickly it was the dolefullest day that ever mine eyes saw. The House stood upon the edg of a hill; some of the Indians got behind the hill, others into the Barn, and others behind any thing that could shelter them; from all which places they shot against the House, so that the Bullets seemed to fly like hail; and quickly they wounded one man among us, then another, and then a third, About two hours (according to my observation, in that amazing time) they had been about the house before they prevailed to fire it (which they did with Flax and Hemp, which they brought out of the Barn, and there being no defence about the House, only two Flankers at two opposite corners and one of them not finished) they fired it once and one ventured out and quenched it, but they quickly fired it again, and that took. Now is the dreadfull hour come, that I have often heard of (in time of War, as it was the case of others) but now mine eyes see it. Some in our house were fighting for their lives, others wallowing in their blood, the House on fire over our heads, and the bloody Heathen ready to knock us on the head, if we stirred out. Now might we hear Mothers and Children crying out for themselves, and one another, Lord, What shall we do? Then I took my Children (and one of my sisters, hers) to go forth and leave the house : but as soon as we came to the dore and appeared, the Indians shot so thick that the bulletts rattled against the House, as if one had taken an handfull of stones and threw them, so that we were fain to give back. We had six stout Dogs belonging to our Garrison, but none of them would stir, though another time, if any Indian had come to the door, they were ready to fly upon him and tear him down. The Lord hereby would make us the more to acknowledge his hand, and to see that our help is always in him. But out we must go, the fire increasing, and coming along behind us, roaring, and the Indians gaping before us with their Guns, Spears and Hatchets to devour us. No sooner were we out of the House, but my Brother in Law (being before wounded, in defending the house, in or near the throat) fell down dead, wherat the Indians scornfully shouted, and hallowed, and were presently upon him, stripping off his cloaths, the bulletts flying thick, one went through my side, and the same (as would seem) through the bowels and hand of my dear Child in my arms. One of my elder Sisters Children, named William, had then his Leg broken, which the Indians perceiving, they knockt him on head. Thus were we butchered by those merciless Heathen, standing amazed, with the blood running down to our heels. My eldest Sister being yet in the House, and seeing those wofull sights, the Infidels haling Mothers one way, and Children another, and some wallowing in their blood: and her elder Son telling her that her Son William was dead, and my self was wounded, she said, And, Lord, let me dy with them; which was no sooner said, but she was struck with a Bullet, and fell down dead over the threshold. I hope she is reaping the fruit of her good labours, being faithfull to the service of God in her place. In her younger years she lay under much trouble upon spiritual accounts, till it pleased God to make that precious Scripture take hold of her heart, 2 Cor. 12. 9. And he said unto me, my Grace is sufficient for thee. More then twenty years after I have heard her tell how sweet and comfortable that place was to her. But to return: The Indians laid hold of us, pulling me one way, and the Children another, and said, Come go along with us; I told them they would kill me: they answered, If I were willing to go along with them, they would not hurt me. Oh the dolefull sight that now was to behold at this House! Come, behold the works of the Lord, what dissolations he has made in the Earth. Of thirty seven persons who were in this one House, none escaped either present death, or a bitter captivity, save only one, who might say as he, Job 1. 15, And I only am escaped alone to tell the News. There were twelve killed, some shot, some stab'd with their Spears, some knock'd down with their Hatchets. When we are in prosperity, Oh the little that we think of such dreadfull sights, and to see our dear Friends, and Relations ly bleeding out their heart-blood upon the ground. There was one who was chopt into the head with a Hatchet, and stript naked, and yet was crawling up and down. It is a solemn sight to see so many Christians lying in their blood, some here, and some there, like a company of Sheep torn by Wolves, All of them stript naked by a company of hell-hounds, roaring, singing, ranting and insulting, as if they would have torn our very hearts out; yet the Lord by his Almighty power preserved a number of us from death, for there were twenty-four of us taken alive and carried Captive. I had often before this said, that if the Indians should come, I should chuse rather to be killed by them then taken alive but when it came to the tryal my mind changed; their glittering weapons so daunted my spirit, that I chose rather to go along with those (as I may say) ravenous Beasts, then that moment to end my dayes; and that I may the better declare what happened to me during that grievous Captivity, I shall particularly speak of the severall Removes we had up and down the Wilderness. 5.
