Can someone please confirm that we are indeed supposed to be writing a historiography on a subject rather than just a history essay?

I'm pretty sure that's what the major is, I'd just like some confirmation on it though.

Thanks.

Yes, you're correct!

The whole concept of the History Extension course is to incorporate Historiography and Historical argument into your thinking and writing. The idea of the project is to incorporate Historiography into your project. Whether you're debating the good vs. bad nature of a personality, the impact of an event on a society / Empire you will always be debating and bringing forth your own opinions and ideas (which is Historiography). Bam a few quotes and historical debates into your essay in conjunction with your own ideas and Voila.
