alevel history coursework help

Hi. I'm doing my Edexcel alevel history coursework on 'what was the main cause of the French Revolution' and I literally cannot find my three differing interpretations for the life of me despite this being a relatively popular topic.
Please could anyone help out/point me in the right direction (I've been scouring Jstor and the internet for what seems like forever, and although I've found some resources - I don't think they are suitable to be my main interpretations)
If anyone has done this topic for their coursework I would very much appreciate it if you could let me know what your interpretations were cause I'm really struggling :frown:

I didn't do Edexcel (OCR A) or French Rev, but I know people that did. There's loads of books you can get online. World of Books sells quite a few for cheap. (£5-20 each). most of these will then have foot notes and references that may lead you onto more primary and secondary sources.

Otherwise the British library has just reopened their reading rooms so you might be able to check online and go look at sources in London/Yorkshire.

Hopes this helps :smile:

I did Edexcel history coursework but ours was on Cold War. Your school sounds odd cause my school gave us so many different interpretations and views we could choose 3 and write about it. If you can ask your teacher if they have examples of coursework that you can get an idea of the way to write it. Other than that, use ChatGPT for all the problems you face. Type in your subject and the A-level and it’ll list a bunch of books you can use and will give you a structure, points to choose from, how to improve. I used it for mine and I got an A in my coursework
