C — by examining the sources and methods historians use.
Historiography is the study of how history is written: the theories, methods, sources, interpretations, and biases of historians and different schools of thought. It helps us evaluate evidence, understand changing interpretations, and assess why historians disagree. The other options describe related activities (context, chronology, political history) but not the core focus of historiography.
