Scholarship is the product of scholars. Scholars are students who have devoted much time and energy to a particular subject. In order to be considered a scholar, one must publish his work (make public). In the free market place of ideas, the scholar's work is critically evaluated and measured against the existing literature on the subject. The evaluators are often called "juries." The jury is the author's peers. You will often hear that an article is "peer-reviewed," or is a "juried article." Another common term for this is "refereed," which means that the article had to be approved by a body of expert or referees. This is a quality control mechanism that insures only best research and creative activities see the light of day. In most cases, scholarship is a secondary source. One major exception to this is the study of historical interpretations or historiography. In that case, the history itself is the primary source.
