challenges faced by this person, and/or how this person’s life still affects us today. Support all
pour assertions with proper reasoning and/or details drawn from your sources, properly cited.
REMEMBER THAT PLAGIARISM IS THE UNPARDONABLE SIN IN RESEARCH
WRITING! Direct
quotations MUST be put in quotation
marks. Use direct quotations sparingly;
it is generally
better to paraphrase rather
than to quote directly from a source; you want the paper
to sound as though YOU wrote
it. However, be sure that when you paraphrase a passage your
wording is clearly different from the original. If you only change a few words for each sentence
that you took from another source, you have committed plagiarism, even if the passage is cited.
Refer to the History Department Policy on Academic Integrity for information about avoiding
plagiarism. Ask your professor if you have any questions.
5. Rest, review, and revise repeatedly. You might use the Writing Center. Include a revised
bibliography as the last page (do not include the thesis page or outlines from previous
assignments). Then for each paper write a final draft printed on one side only to be turned in on
the date given for each in the syllabus (100 points each).

Major Written Assignments
Biography remains a popular and useful way to understand history. People’s lives, especially
those who play a major, positive role in change, illustrate the possibilities
and constraints which
affect humanity. You will manage information, evaluate different historical opinions, analyze
arguments, organize your thoughts and present them in a clear written form in order to better
understand an historical process.
Procedure:
1. Choose any two important figures who significantly contributed to the improvement of
Western Civilization. Your first subject must have lived before A.D. 1500, and the second must
have lived between A.D. 1500 and 1900. No figures from the New World (the Americas) are
permitted. These people may have been involved in fields such as science, politics, economics,
social change, culture, or religion. Submit your choices on the dates listed in the schedule (5
points each). The professor may require you to choose another person.
2. Carefully research each person. Note how each person made positive contributions to
civilization.
3. For each paper refer to at least one primary source, one tertiary source (encyclopedia,
handbook, or dictionary), and three scholarly secondary sources (biographical, detailed works,
books, and/or journal articles written by professional historians that closely examine the person).
You may use online journal articles accessed through EBSCO in place of printed secondary
sources. You may use other internet sources as well, but bear in mind that their reliability may be
questionable, and these sources will not count among the required sources. If you have any
doubts about the appropriateness of your sources, please ask the professor. See
www.fordham.edu/halsall/ for primary sources. The textbook cannot be used as one of your
sources. DO NOT USE WIKIPEDIA AS A SOURCE. For each paper you must turn in a
thesis statement written as one full complete sentence, an outline (at least a page and a half with
specific details), and a pre-bibliography of your sources (at least three at this point) in proper
format (see Study Guide #6 from the Corgan Library for the Turabian format for bibliography
entries). These assignments (25 points each) MUST be typed. This assignment will be evaluated
on both the quality of references and the accuracy of bibliographic formatting.
4. For each assignment write an essay (six to eight pages, not counting the title page or
bibliography) whose thesis argues how the person changed history for the better. The quality and
use of your research will substantially influence the evaluation of your essay. Each source in the
bibliography must be cited at least once in the paper. The professor is largely interested in the
historical role of the person, so his or her childhood and personal information are probably less
relevant to your paper than adult and public activities and achievements. Do not write a standard
biography. Most major points should be devoted to specifics about positive contributions,
showing significant influence or impact on history. At least one paragraph should cover
weaknesses, flaws, or possible criticisms about the person that you need to rationalize, justify, or
excuse. Be sure to place the person in historical context, focusing on how things used to be
before the positive things brought about by this person, the historical process of change,

Writing Notes
1. The word Bibliography (centered, not underlined, and not italicized!) must appear at
the top of the bibliography page.
2. All bibliography entries must end with a period.
3. You must have a title for the paper and a title page. Do not underline your title on the
title page.
4. Foreign words should be written in italics.
5. Be sure to use period when using the abbreviation B.C., A.D., or B. C. E.
6. Do not use first person.
7. The possessive form of a name ending in s must have an apostrophe. Socrates’ most
famous pupil was Plato.”
8 Words that end in -ist need an s to become plural. One communist, two communists.
4. Block quotations are indented on the left only and are not put in quotation marks.
10. Periods and commas always go inside quotation marks; semicolons go outside.
11. Distinguish between capital and capitol.
12. Parenthetical citations must include the publication date and the page or pages from
which the information was taken. (Smith 1990, 471). Use a comma between the
date and page; do not use an abbreviation before the page number. A website
probably will have a date but not a page: (Adams 2002). Citations come before
the period at the end of a sentence.
13. Using the Turabian
system, you will not use the abbreviations p. or pp. The
abbreviation pg. does not exist!
14. Note especially how to list an encyclopedia article in Turabian (p. 7 of the handout).
Note the spelling of The New Encyclopaedia Britannica.
15. Number your pages beginning with the first page of the text. Do not count the title
page in numbering. Do not put the title on the top of the first page of the text; use
normal (default) margins for the first page of the text.
16. Do not print on both sides of the paper.
17. For a bibliography entry for a book, list the city of publication, not just the state. Give
the state also for cities that are not well known, e.g., Gainesville, Florida.
18. Single-space each bibliography entry; skip lines between the entries.
19. For monarchs or popes, we say, for example, “Louis the Fourteenth,” but the name is
written Louis XIV. Do not put the word the in between the name and the Roman
numeral.

At the end of each bibliography entry show in brackets how each source will be cited in
the paper; see the examples above. Be especially careful that the reader can distinguish
among various websites with no authors, you might, for example identify one source as
“Leonardo A and another Leonardo B.” Also, in brackets identify your primary source
or sources. If it is not obvious that the source is primary, add a phrase or sentence
explaining why you consider it to be a primary source.
Remember that EVERY source in the bibliography must be cited at least once, and
EVERY source that is cited in the paper must appear in the bibliography.
