Answer this question… Primary sources are created by people who actually experienced the event
A primary source is something that comes from the time that the history is studying. If a historian is studying the first world war, then letters and diaries writen by soldiers, the uniforms they wore and the weapons that they used are primary sources. If a soldier who fought in the trenches wrote about his memories of the war a long time after the war had finished, it would stil be a primary source.
A micro historian might focus on studying specific individuals, events, or small-scale phenomena in great detail, often relying on close analysis of primary sources. In contrast, a comparative historian may study broader patterns or themes across different regions or periods, comparing similarities and differences to draw larger conclusions. Both approaches provide valuable insights but emphasize different levels of analysis and breadth of study.
