Sinossi
EE4 Descrizione
Evidence Explained guida gli utenti attraverso un labirinto di risorse storiche non coperte da altri manuali di citazione, tutti i tipi di materiali di origine primaria accessibili attraverso tutti i tipi di media. Più di mille esempi di documenti statunitensi e internazionali dimostrano come gestire le stranezze che ostacolano gli utenti di questi materiali. Studenti, studiosi e investigatori curiosi affrontano tutti le stesse domande:
- Quali dettagli dobbiamo catturare per ogni tipo di fonte per comprenderla e interpretarne correttamente le prove?
- Come valutiamo la credibilità di un record, specialmente quando le sue informazioni sono in conflitto con altre fonti?
- Come identifichiamo ogni fonte, non solo in modo che possa essere trovata di nuovo, ma in modo che noi e gli altri possiamo giudicare la sua affidabilità?
- Come possiamo proteggerci dal marciume del collegamento e dalle fonti che scompaiono durante la ricerca online?
Evidence Explained , un Library Journal Best Reference , ha risposto a queste domande dal 2007. Novità alla 4° Edizione:
- Nuovo tutorial: "Costruire la tua citazione" (Capitolo 3)
- 14 modelli universali per citare ogni tipo di fonte
- Oltre 1000 esempi di citazioni ciascuno codificato su un modello specifico
- Maggiore enfasi sulle fonti primarie digitalizzate
- Copertura internazionale ampliata
- Discussioni ed esempi aggiornati per ogni tipo di fonte e tutti i meccanismi di consegna digitale

Evidence Explained: Citing History Sources from Artifacts to Cyberspace, Fourth Edition Revised
Da: Collector Bookstore, Leavenworth, KS, U.S.A.
Valutazione del venditore 5 su 5 stelle
Hard Cover. Condizione: New. For today's family historians, records abound. In courthouses and warehouses, town halls and rectories, archives and attics, we find old records in every form imaginable. Technology also delivers documents and relics through many digital formats. Audio files, podcasts, and YouTube stream insight into past lives. Libraries offer film and fiche, reprints, and revisions, translations and transcripts, alongside digital access to books and journals published previously in print. However, all records are not created equal, and history is not just a collection of "facts." Critical analysis is essential, and since 2007 Evidence Explained has been the definitive, go-to guide for those who explore history and seek help with understanding, analyzing, and citing the materials they use. Evidence Explained has two principal uses: it provides citation models for historical sources--especially materials not covered in standard citation guides such as The Chicago Manual of Style. Beyond that, it enables researchers to understand the nature of each source so that evidence they cite can be better interpreted and the accuracy of their conclusions properly appraised. In the six years since the last edition was published, changes at major repositories and online information providers--as well as the ever-evolving electronic world--have generated new citation and analysis challenges for researchers. As a consequence, Mrs. Mills has once again updated her citation models and added descriptions and evaluations of numerous contemporary materials not included in the Third Edition Revised. Evidence Explained's new fourth edition significantly reexamines historical resources and simplifies long-standing practices. Highlights of the Fourth Edition include: Updated Chapters One and Two ("Fundamentals of Analysis" and "Fundamentals of Citation"), continue to lay the foundations for successful research. An entirely new Chapter Three, "Building a Citation," provides a tutorial for the construction of citations. Here, you learn to work with seven basic building blocks that can be mixed and matched to create a citation for any kind of source. Chapter Three's 14 streamlined templates replace the previous 170 QuickChek Models, assembling the basic building blocks as needed to create citations for every type of material--whether accessed as an unpublished manuscript, print publication, database, or online image delivered at a specific URL or through a complex path and its waypoints. All examples in the twelve "Records" chapters (Chapters Four through Fifteen) are keyed to the specific templates that work best for each source or situation. Hundreds of new citation examples emphasize modern modes of access, particularly the layered citations that modern media require. WHAT THE CRITICS SAY. "The definitive guide for how to cite every conceivable kind of source a historian might use, from traditional archival materials to digital media to the most arcane sources imaginable." - John B. Boles, William P. Hobby Professor of History, Rice University "Evidence Explained has a fantastic opening section that really changed my perspective on âevidence.' The citation formats are handy but honestly, it's the commentary from ESM that made me want to buy myself a personal copy sooner rather than later." - Kim Phillips-Sasso, Clarksville-Habersham County [Georgia] Library, as quoted on Goodreads "Historians will welcome the publication of this detailed guide to citations. Even avid users of The Chicago Manual of Style regularly encounter sources for which that handbook gives no guidance. Now we can turn to Elizabeth Shown Mills's comprehensive work." - Journal of Southern History "This is an essential resource for family historians; highly recommended for all libraries." - Library Journal (First edition: Library Journal Best Reference 2007) "I purchased two copies of this book, one to mark and one to keep in "great" condition. I am underlining, circling, adding sticky notes and such to assist in assimilating what Mrs. Mills has put forth in this definitive work." - Dear Myrtle "A staple for any genealogy library. It should be one of the top ten books in any genealogist's collection." - Deborah Sweeney, as quoted on Goodreads "Meant not only as a style guide for the types of source citations used by historians and genealogists, this book also discusses why analysis of information within the total context of a source is imperative to understanding the nature of a fact. Citations not only tell where the source was found, but also can indicate a level of confidence to knowledgeable researchers." - Association of Professional Genealogists Quarterly.
