Ancient Jewish History Discussion

I’m working on a History question and need guidance to help me study.

 

Choose one of the primary sources listed in the Course Schedule. I will give you my log in information to access the readings. Write a two-page double-spaced analysis of the primary source. The analysis should introduce the source and then answer the following questions: what is the physical nature of the source? What does its physical nature indicate about its function (i.e., what was the source originally produced for?)? What is the source’s purpose? What is its message? Who was the intended audience of the source? After you have answered these questions, provide a short analysis of the content of the source (i.e., evaluate and explain the important literary features and strategies of the source). This is a formal paper and should be well-written and well-organized. Include a Works Cited page with any secondary readings that assisted you in developing your ideas. Please use Chicago formatting style (see Purdue OWL for examples of this format). I would also encourage you to read the pages about evaluating primary sources in the Rampolla reading as part of your preparation for this assignment. Submit to turnitin.com no later than Tuesday, November 24th. In order to develop your paper, please use JSTOR.org (https://www.jstor.org/) and the Young Research Library database (https://catalog.library.ucla.edu/)
