A note on reading primary sources

Primary sources can be harder to read than secondary scholarship. The language is from another time; the references assume context the reader does not have; the author is making a case rather than explaining themselves to outsiders. That difficulty is part of the work. Take time, read aloud when it helps, and look up references together.
