Primary Source Analysis 2

Using the excerpt The Decameron as a primary source, complete the Primary Source Analysis Worksheet (both linked below) and submit it through the Assignment Inbox button at the bottom of this page.

Answer each question completely, taking into account material covered both in class and in the text. Answers should be in complete sentences, organized in paragraph form.

Sometimes the primary source won’t provide a clear or straightforward answer to a question on the worksheet. If that happens, it’s okay to take a guess based on the information you have.

This is not intended to be an assignment that requires outside research; your answer should be based on the material covered in class and in the text.

90 - 100 points: All questions were answered completely and thoughtfully, in paragraph form, using appropriate grammar and punctuation. Material covered in class and the text was accurately referenced.
