This page groups a historical document by where it sits within the wider body of related documents that contains it. Wikipedia notes that primary sources are "distinguished from secondary sources, which interpret, analyze, or otherwise comment on primary sources," a relationship that often links several documents together. Browsing this way moves between a document and its neighboring texts.
