Poltical Point of View of the Boston Tea Party.

A historiography paper is an essay that examines the different ways an event has been documented by historians throughout the years. The writer explores the various angles (gender, economic, religious, race, class, politics, international, labor relations, political, environmental etc.) that an event has been investigated by historians. For instance, in a historiography paper that covers the Civil Rights Movement, that writer would discuss how some historians focused solely on the leaders of the movement while other historians published books that explored the Civil Rights Movement through the eyes of women. It must be noted that you will not simply explore the various viewpoints of an event. On the contrary, you will analyzes and evaluates the main arguments of each angle (gender, economic, religious, racial, class, etc.) in addition to analyzing and evaluating the sources the authors used to construct their narrative. It is in this section that you will explore key scholars who have contributed groundbreaking perspective to that specific topic. For example, the historian William Dunning shaped how historians and educators perceived the Reconstruction Era. Dunning’s work was so innovative that his view on reconstruction is known as the Dunning School Theory on Reconstruction. This theory holds that after the Civil War, the KKK were the heroes that saved the South and that African Americans and White northerners were the villains. The Dunning school theory was taught throughout the US until the 1930s when it was rejected. Although Dunning’s theory was rejected, it is significant because it was one of the first historical perspectives on Reconstruction.
