Everything about Tertiary Sources totally explained
A
tertiary source is a selection, distillation, summary or compilation of
primary sources,
secondary sources, or both. The distinction between
primary source and
secondary source is standard in
historiography, while the distinction between these sources and
tertiary sources is more peripheral, and is more relevant to the scholarly research work than to the published content itself.
Typical instances of tertiary sources are
bibliographies, library
catalogs, directories, reading lists and survey articles.
Encyclopedias and
textbooks are examples of materials that typically embrace both secondary and tertiary sources, presenting on the one hand commentary and analysis, while on the other attempting to provide a synoptic overview of the material available on the topic.
By contrast, a
primary source presents material from a first-hand witness to a phenomenon, and a
secondary source commonly provides interpretation, commentary, analysis and criticism of primary sources.
