Paperback. Condition: Very Good. How does the historian approach primary sources? How do interpretations differ? How can they be used to write history? Reading Primary Sources goes a long way to providing answers for these questions. In the first part of this unique volume, the chapters give an overview of both traditional and new methodological approaches to the use of sources, analyzing the way that these have changed over time. The second part gives an overview of twelve different types of written sources, including letters, opinion polls, surveillance reports, diaries, novels, newspapers, and dreams, taking into account the huge expansion in the range of written primary sources used by historians over the last thirty years. This book is an up-to-date introduction into the historical context of these different genres, the ways they should be read, the possible insights and results these sources offer and the pitfalls of their interpretation. All of the chapters push the reader beyond a conventional understanding of source texts as mere "reflections" of a given reality, instead fostering an understanding of how each of the various genres has to be seen as a medium in its own right. Taking examples of sources from around the globe, and also including a student-friendly further reading section, this is the perfect companion for every student of history who wants to engage with sources. The book has been read, but is in excellent condition. Pages are intact and not marred by notes or highlighting. The spine remains undamaged.

First Edition
Hard Cover. Condition: Fine. Dust Jacket Condition: Fine. First Edition, first printing. First Edition, first printing. Hard cover 8vo in black cloth, titles in silver to the spine, in an unclipped pictorial dust jacket, and mylar protector,165 pp. This newly published curated selection of twenty short stories features a new Introduction and Afterword. ** Fans of the still relatively unknown Ukrainian-Brazilian twentieth century Author will recognize and rejoice in this concentrated display of her unique prose style: in short vignettes or stories which are at once modern, impressionistic, with characters imperfect and unguarded, told in often succinct yet rich language which paradoxically often stops one in their tracks with insight into a character's motivations or other enigmatic statement. The titular story, for instance features a girl whose "frenemy" offers to lend her a coveted book from her father's bookstore. After repeatedly insisting she drops by to pick up the volume, only for it not to be available, the girl realizes she is being abused. She says, " I had already started to guess that she'd chosen me to suffer, sometimes I guess things. But, in actually guessing things, I sometimes accept them: as if whoever wants to make me suffer damn well needs me to." Once she has acquired the book, through the intervention of the nasty girl's mother, she is only partly content. The "covert joy" of possession is elusive because she somehow feels undeserving, an idea the author then briefly yet powerfully predicts will affect her relationship with a potential mate. These stories were not translated into English from Lispector's native Portuguese until nearly 40 years after her death in 1977. (AMJ). Book.
