Interpreting the Past: The Attack on Nanking

One of the main jobs of historians is to interpret the past by reviewing primary documents, scholarly secondary sources, and then creating an analysis of this research. After reading your text and reviewing the assigned materials, submit an analysis of the attack on Nanking.

You might want to consider the following questions, but you are not limited to them: Why do you think the Japanese aggression in World War II is much less well known than the Holocaust? Should the attack on Nanking be considered a massacre or a battle? Should this be taught in high schools alongside the Holocaust?

This assignment should be at least 300 words and contain your reactions or questions about some specific issue within the historical narrative which you find compelling. For full credit, your paper must not simply sum up the reading or repeat points made there. Rather, I’m looking for you to create your own interpretation, explain the emotional content of the piece, or discuss some original insight. Include citations as needed. ANSWER ALL QUESTIONS.
