Help with choosing a topic and finding some sources
Post Body

Hi all, I'm a Graduate Student in History and I'm starting to work on what I want my Thesis to be about. I'm still in my first year(second semester) but I'm having trouble coming up with some clear ideas or gaps in Historiography to work on. My chosen area of interest is Medieval European History(after 1100) with particular interest in Magic/Witchcraft/Pagan Survivals, Religious/Philosophical/Intellectual history(they all kinda go together), Military History and to a lesser degree Social History. Obviously I'm not going to be able to combine all these topics but I do want to pick one area and find a topic worth writing about and exploring. I've looked through some of the Historiography and Primary Sources about these topics but I don't really know where to start so I was hoping I could get some specific ideas of what to look at or maybe even some topics you've been interested in and wished someone would write about. Thanks y'all.
