What is a Document? A document is more than the traditional piece of paper. Typically, students tend to think of documents and sources as words written on parchment by people who have been dead for a long time. While a document is this, it is also more. Photographs, architecture, song lyrics, music, advertisements, clothing, and even movies all qualify as documents and sources. In addition to providing some of the traditional sources for classroom use, this page also hopes to expose you to "less traditional" sources as well. All documents on this page are primary sources. In other words, they came from the particular period they are listed under. They were produced by people in that time and thus reflect something of how those people thought and what they thought of as important. Looking over these documents should beg an interesting question: when you die, what will your sources and documents say about you? Back to Top
