Paper details:
Each paper should summarize the content of the source, but also go beyond summary to inquiry and analysis. Consider these types of questions:
• What has the source contributed to architectural history?
Consider whether new facts have been discovered, or new interpretations proposed, or both.
• Why did the author choose this subject?
• How did the author know or discover these things? (Look at the footnotes.)
• How does the author treat assumptions and unknowns?
Also, connect your learning to ideas presented in lecture. It is possible your source will not address these types of questions explicitly:
• If your topic is a building, what style is it, and what makes it so?
• What are the larger movements or historical themes represented by the building or style? Did it reflect
larger social changes?
Was it innovative in terms of technology or organization of space?
Did it influence the future direction of architecture?
Finally, discuss what you've learned about the nature of scholarly research in architectural history.
