Research Paper
You will use the link above to submit your Research Paper.
Note: Before beginning this assignment, read through information contained in the Scholastic Honesty link on the course menu to the left.
The core assignment of this course is a documented research paper (3 full pages double-spaced, 12-point font).
The paper should support a thesis statement with information gained from research or investigation.
The paper will not be just a report presenting information but will be a paper that carefully examines and presents your own historical interpretation of the topic you have chosen and your interpretation of the information you have gathered.
The paper may include consideration of problems and solutions, definition of key terms, or may refute arguments against your thesis statement.
It will be important to choose a topic of interest to you.
Approach this assignment with an open and skeptical mind, then form an opinion based on what you have discovered.
You must suspend beliefs while you are investigating and let the discoveries shape your opinion. (This is a thesis-finding approach.)
Once you have found your thesis, write the paper to support it.
You will use some of the following critical thinking skills in this process:
Choosing an appropriate topic, limiting the topic.
Gathering information, summarizing sources.
Analyzing and evaluating sources.
Defining key terms.
Synthesizing information, comparing and contrasting sources.
Testing a thesis, making a historical argument, using refutation.
Amassing support for a position.
Documenting sources.
Because this may be a longer paper than you have written before and a complex process is involved, it is recommended that you complete this paper using the following steps:
Choose a topic related to chapters covered in The American Yawp, (Chapters 1-15) that you would truly like to explore and that you are willing to spend some time on. Your chosen topic should be focused. Pose a question that you really want to answer. You may want to begin with more than one topic in mind.
Do some preliminary reading on the topic(s). You may begin with the textbook, then further explore the information available. Refine your topic. Summarize your topic, your interest in the topic, the questions you want to answer, and a hypothesis you want to test.
Gather information from a variety of sources. Use a minimum of four sources for your paper, and at least one must be a primary source.
Primary sources are contemporary to the times under investigation.
An example of a secondary source is our textbook, though the textbook also contains excerpts of primary sources, which you may use as a source in your paper.
Outline the results of your research and the plan for your paper (you are not required to submit the outline).
Write the final draft and be sure to include a Works Cited List (as a separate 4th page), and use the correct MLA documentation style.

Because this is a research based paper, students must demonstrate that they can find and use GMC “library approved” sources throughout the work.  The final paper requires a minimum of 2 primary sources and 3 secondary sources.
Students need to use pagination citation throughout their papers to show how and where they used their sources. Example: “The War of 1812 was started by America.” (Kucsan, 2009) or (the authors last name). Now if you are using more than one article by the same author then you need to put in the title of the article such as (Kucsan, 2009, Consequences of the War of 1812). If you are using 2 different works with authors of the same last name then do the following; (Kucsan, P, 2009) Just put in the first initial.

Readings (see the lectures sections in the weeks 12 and 13 modules for where to find the readings):
Lu Ann Homza, “How to Harass an Inquisitor-General: The Polyphonic Law of Friar Francisco Ortíz,” A Renaissance of Conflicts: Visions and Revisions of Law and Society in Italy and Spain, 299–336.
Documents 17 and 19 in Lu Ann Homza, ed., The Spanish Inquisition 1478–1614.
Joseph Pérez, The Spanish Inquisition, 176–195.
Question for Analysis: In a 5-page paper (typed, double space), answer ONE of the following questions:
How did the Inquisition’s censorship affect educated and uneducated people in different ways? Was one group more affected than the other? Explain by discussing three specific examples from the readings listed above.
How effective was the Inquisition’s censorship? How was it most effective and least effective? Explain by discussing three specific examples from the readings listed above.
Your book analysis must specifically address the question, or else we will not accept it. It should have a thesis that succinctly answers the question, and the rest of your paper should support this argument based on your analysis of your examples using brief quotations.
Since the questions are general, you may want to have a more specific thesis. You may want to briefly define the terms educated and uneducated or effective and ineffective as part of your answer.
Indicate your notes in parenthesis, for example: (Homza, doc. 17, p. X), (Perez, p. X), (Homza, “Ortiz,” p. X). You do not need a bibliography. If you want to cite Kamen’s book, sum up the points and give page references, but try not to quote from it.
