Question

Differentiate between primary and secondary sources​

Answer 1

Answer:

The function of these is to interpret primary sources, and so can be described as at least one step removed from the event or phenomenon under review. Secondary source materials, then, interpret, assign value to, conjecture upon, and draw conclusions about the events reported in primary sources. These are usually in the form of published works such as journal articles or books, but may include radio or television documentaries, or conference proceedings.

HEY MATE HERE IS YOUR ANSWER:)

PRIMARY SOURCES:-

Primary sources are the raw materials of historical research - they are the documents or artifacts closest to the topic of investigation. Often they are created during the time period which is being studied (correspondence, diaries, newspapers, government documents, art) but they can also be produced later by eyewitnesses or participants (memoirs, oral histories). You may find primary sources in their original format (usually in an archive) or reproduced in a variety of ways: books, microfilm, digital, etc.

Examples include: -

Artifacts (e.g. coins, plant specimens, fossils, furniture, tools, clothing, all from the time under study)

Audio recordings (e.g. radio programs, oral histories)

Diaries

Internet communications on email, listservs

Interviews (e.g., oral histories, telephone, e-mail)

Journal articles published in peer-reviewed publications

Letters

Newspaper articles written at the time

Original Documents (i.e. birth certificate, will, marriage license, trial transcript)

Patents

Photographs

SECONDARY SOURCES:-

Secondary sources offer an analysis or a restatement of primary sources. They often attempt to describe or explain primary sources. Some secondary sources not only analyze primary sources, but also use them to argue a contention or persuade the reader to hold a certain opinion.  Secondary sources are not evidence, but rather commentary on and discussion of evidence.

Examples include: -

Bibliographies (also considered tertiary)

Biographical works

Commentaries, criticisms

Dictionaries, Encyclopedias (also considered tertiary)

Histories

Journal articles (depending on the disciple can be primary)

Magazine and newspaper articles (this distinction varies by discipline)

Monographs, other than fiction and autobiography

Textbooks (also considered tertiary)

Web site (also considered primary)
