Source Criticism Essay Example

from somewhere else.

As expected the specific article about reformation in England (the article I got directed to) has information that’s not consistent with other trustworthy sources, e. g. : NE, where DKIEL and NE’s years differs with around 5 years and NE is considered a trustworthy source. The use of history at least on the article about reformation in England, is a mixture of political educational use and existentially use. The article describes in a discrete way of how an almighty one (in this case Henry VIII) often fails, that the actions that affected the country badly were all taken by the king alone, ignoring the fact that both the good ones and the bad ones were taken by the king and his advisors. This indirectly contribute to the statement “dictatorships are bound to fail”.

The existentially use is also noticeable in the article, where the article’s conclusion includes of how all mistakes can be fixed in the end. History shows that we don’t need to worry, just give it time and space. The users of this site would probably be suited for almost everyone, although people whom are non-critical thinkers and the users function with this is to acquire knowledge about the e. g. reformation and interpret the causes to it and analyze what to do to prevent this from happening (this is the crowd the dkiel site is aiming for) When it’s all said and done the article and the site itself are not trustworthy sources.
