Module 1: What are primary sources?
|
Novelists, screenwriters, playwrights, poets, and other writers often have original manuscripts included in their personal papers. These are the handwritten, typed, or word-processed versions of novels, stories, poems, scripts, articles and books as originally produced by these authors, often in multiple drafts or with scribbles and edits.
Some such manuscripts have been subsequently published or produced in some edited form, while others may never have seen the light of day.
