HISTORICAL SOURCE ADVANTAGES DISADVANTAGES

Primary Source: The advantage of the primary source
is that you can assure that the
The Katipunan and the Revolution: information it has is liable and valid
Memoirs of a General because it is from the person who
by Santiago Alvarez witnessed or experience the said
event.
The disadvantage of the primary source
is that it lacks from the perspective of
other views just like how General
Alvares explained his thoughts about
the tejeros conventions were his focus
is all about the things that just happen in
the event and maybe he has bias on
how he describe all the happening
because his part of Magdiwang.

Secondary Source: The advantage of secondary source is The disadvantage of the secondary
that the author may give more source is that there are some
Secondary: information that the primary source information that is not match to the
History of the Filipino People: Eight can’t have. He has more views about primary source because the information
Edition the topic because he will just not focus that he will going to provide is already
by Teodoro A. Agoncillo on one side of the information but analyze and interpreted.
rather search for more data’s And also
the words use in the secondary source
is more understandable because he
can translate difficult words that he got
from his other sources.

Conclusion and Implication:

With the given sources, we already came up with the ideas that the primary sources are still better than the secondary
sources.Primary sources provide raw information and first-hand evidence. Examples include interview transcripts,
statistical data, and works of art. A primary source gives you direct access to the subject of your research. While the
secondary sources provide second-hand information and commentary from other researchers. Examples include journal
articles, reviews, and academic books. A secondary source describes, interprets, or synthesizes primary sources.
However, in doing a good research they are both useful and helpful in providing information about the particular event,
stories, and happenings in the past or in the present times.
