********NO PLAGIARISM WILL BE TOLERATED. PROPER GRAMMAR AND SPELLING IS REQUIRED. PAPER MUST BE WRITTEN WELL AS A COLLEGE STUDENT WOULD WRITE IT. IF ANYTHING SAID ABOVE IS NOT DONE PROPERLY, WILL RESULT IN WITHDRAWAL.**********

READ AND FOLLOW ALL INSTRUCTIONS CAREFULLY

Write an analytical paper of at least 800-1000 words (double spaced 12 point font times new roman).This paper will give you an opportunity to practice critical historical thinking skills by analyzing one of the main themes that this course covers. Use ONLY assigned primary documents attached below as evidence to substantiate analysis presented in the papers and cite such evidence properly. The goal of the paper is to develop an argument and support it with pertinent evidence that is carefully selected. It is not an exercise in writing a straightforward narrative of historical events or demonstration of your eagerness to squeeze as much primary evidence as possible in a relatively limited space. Also note that your purpose is an analytical interpretation of issues evolved, not praise/condemnation of anybody/anything “right” or “wrong” or a search for causes of events/historical processes.

Must be cited in Chicago manual style.

You are creating a full and proper four-page paper that you will then expand in paper two. Focus only on this specific course. No outside sources and do not bring more modern issues into the discussions. Examine the documents within their own time and context. Do not judge or moralize. Be sure that you have a clear argument and do not simply summarize the arguments within the documents. Each argument should be supported with direct quotations from the primary sources that are correctly cited and that you analyze and pick apart in order to demonstrate how the selected quote supports the argument. Be sure to include a title as well. No need for a works cited page when using Chicago Manual Style. Below is the link to the Owl Purdue site which provides excellent examples on how to construct your footnotes. Be sure that you create proper footnotes rather than using a footer function. A footer repeats on each page exactly, whereas footnotes will correspond to the specific page.

Explore evolution of warfare and its impact on European societies and people’s consciousness during the time period covered in this course.In addition to analyzing changing methods of warfare and their significance, examine policies and efforts of European statesmen and peoples to either wage wars successfully or prevent their outbreak in the first place through establishment of conditions that preserved peace.Without making moral value judgments of who was “wrong” or “right,” you can analyze success or failure of their efforts.In the process of analysis, present pertinent evidence at appropriate points of what political leaders, intellectuals and common people thought of issues of war and peace.
