Book excerpt: Excerpt from Archeology at the Petersen House, Unearthing an Alternate History: A Cultural Resource Management Project Undertaken by the Regional Archeology Program, National Park Service, National Capital Region In the early morning hours of April 15, 1865 an event of national significance took place in an ordinary row house in Washington, D.C., allowing archeologists one hundred and twenty years later the opportunity to peer into a window on the past. That event was the passing away of Abraham Lincoln, 16th president of the United States of America. The row house belonged to William Petersen, a German immigrant tailor. A twist of fate, throwing together the famous with the unknown, the great with the small, created a story involving an ordinary person who should have been lost amongst the countless pages of history. Such are often the stories of archeology; this report will attempt to retell one of them. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Download or read book Lincoln's Final Hours written by Kathryn Canavan and published by University Press of Kentucky. This book was released on 2015-10-02 with total page 248 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: When John Wilkes Booth fired his derringer point-blank into President Abraham Lincoln's head, he set in motion a series of dramatic consequences that would upend the lives of ordinary Washingtonians and Americans alike. In a split second, the story of a nation was changed. During the hours that followed, America's future would hinge on what happened in a cramped back bedroom at Petersen's Boardinghouse, directly across the street from Ford's Theatre. There, a twenty-three-year-old surgeon -- fresh out of medical school -- struggled to keep the president alive while Mary Todd Lincoln moaned at her husband's bedside. In Lincoln's Final Hours, author Kathryn Canavan takes a magnifying glass to the last moments of the president's life and to the impact his assassination had on a country still reeling from a bloody civil war. With vivid, thoroughly researched prose and a reporter's eye for detail, this fast-paced account not only furnishes a glimpse into John Wilkes Booth's personal and political motivations but also illuminates the stories of ordinary people whose lives were changed forever by the assassination. While countless works on the Lincoln assassination exist, Lincoln's Final Hours moves beyond the well-known traditional accounts, offering readers a front-row seat to the drama and horror of Lincoln's death by putting them in the shoes of the audience in Ford's Theatre that dreadful evening. Through her careful narration of the twists of fate that placed the president in harm's way, of the plotting conversations Booth had with his accomplices, and of the immediate aftermath of the assassination, Canavan illustrates how the experiences of a single night changed the course of history.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In the past few decades, much political-philosophical reflection has been dedicated to the realm of "the political." Many of the key figures in contemporary political theory—Jacques Rancière, Alain Badiou, Reinhart Koselleck, Giorgio Agamben, Ernesto Laclau, and Slavoj i ek, among others—have dedicated themselves to explaining power relations, but in many cases they take the concept of the political for granted, as if it were a given, an eternal essence. In An Archaeology of the Political, Elías José Palti argues that the dimension of reality known as the political is not a natural, transhistorical entity. Instead, he claims that the horizon of the political arose in the context of a series of changes that affirmed the power of absolute monarchies in seventeenth-century Europe and was successively reconfigured from this period up to the present. Palti traces this series of redefinitions accompanying alterations in regimes of power, thus describing a genealogy of the concept of the political. Perhaps most important, An Archaeology of the Political brings to theoretical discussions a sound historical perspective, illuminating the complex influences of both theology and secularization on our understanding of the political in the contemporary world.
