DO - 10.3726/med.2021.01.58 UR - https://www.peterlang.com/document/1238994 N2 - The scholarly practices which historians learn in graduate school become second nature to us, so that we forget that members of the general public (or for that matter, members of other scholarly disciplines) do not necessarily share our assumptions. We confront this most often when we teach students, as we struggle to convey to them the process of historical thinking. Accordingly I am most grateful to Leah Shopkow for providing students with a clear, concise account of how historians parse primary sources. ER -
