Write an 800-1000 word (3-4 page) essay that highlights the main historiographical arguments and historians in chosen topic, making sure to explain the major changes and/or controversies as they relate to topic. You may consider the broader historiography than your paper topic, but try to focus as closely as you can to the area that you will be writing your final paper on. Proper citations and bibliography, in Chicago style, must be included as well.
