History as a discipline is a cumulative practice in which historians often build upon and challenge each other’s work as well as common myths. The framing of new questions, the discovery of new evidence, and the pressing interests of the historian’s own time – these are but a few of many possible examples –contribute to this revisionist streak. With this in mind, write a short essay in which you explore an example (or examples) of the revisionism that can be found in the materials for this course.
Reading sources: 3 of them provided, but not all needed for this essay

Identifications (12.5 points each = 50 points total):
Word Count: Roughly 75-100 words for each ID.
Choose any four of the Identifications that you have written in this course and do the following:
Peace of Augsburg, 1555
Defenestration of Prague
Christian IV
Gustavus Adolphus
Cardinal Richelieu
A) Briefly identify the term;
B) Explain its historical importance; and
C) Explain how it illustrates one of the following historical concepts: Complexity, Causation, Contingency, Context, Continuity, Change, Agency, and Structure.
You can use each of the historical concepts one time (for example, you cannot use complexity twice); in addition, you should note that you will write four ID answers, yet there are seven different historical concepts, which means that you do not have to use all of the historical concepts.
