Book Synopsis Sea Change at Annapolis by : H. Michael Gelfand
Download or read book Sea Change at Annapolis written by H. Michael Gelfand and published by Univ of North Carolina Press. This book was released on 2009-09-15 with total page 417 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Since 1845, the United States Naval Academy has prepared professional military leaders at its Annapolis, Maryland, campus. Although it remains steeped in a culture of tradition and discipline, the Academy is not impervious to change. Dispelling the myth that the Academy is a bastion of tradition unmarked by progress, H. Michael Gelfand examines challenges to the Naval Academy's culture from both inside and outside the Academy's walls between 1949 and 2000, an era of dramatic social change in American history. Drawing on more than two hundred oral histories, extensive archival research, and his own participatory observation at the Academy, Gelfand demonstrates that events at Annapolis reflect the transformation of American culture and society at large in the Cold War and post-Cold War periods. In eight chapters, he discusses recruiting and minority midshipmen, the end of mandatory attendance at religious services, women's experiences as they sought and achieved admission and later served as midshipmen, and the responses of multiple generations of midshipmen to societal changes, particularly during the Vietnam War era. This cultural history not only sheds light on events at the Naval Academy but also offers a novel perspective on democratic ideals in the United States.
Book Synopsis Performing Race and Erasure by : Shannon Rose Riley
Download or read book Performing Race and Erasure written by Shannon Rose Riley and published by Springer. This book was released on 2016-06-22 with total page 284 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In this book, Shannon Rose Riley provides a critically rich investigation of representations of Cuba and Haiti in US culture in order to analyze their significance not only to the emergence of empire but especially to the reconfiguration of US racial structures along increasingly biracial lines. Based on impressive research and with extensive analysis of various textual and performance forms including a largely unique set of skits, plays, songs, cultural performances and other popular amusements, Riley shows that Cuba and Haiti were particularly meaningful to the ways that people in the US re-imagined themselves as black or white and that racial positions were renegotiated through what she calls acts of palimpsest: marking and unmarking, racing and erasing difference. Riley’s book demands a reassessment of the importance of the occupations of Cuba and Haiti to US culture, challenging conventional understandings of performance, empire, and race at the turn of the twentieth century.
Download or read book Glastenbury written by Tyler Resch and published by Arcadia Publishing. This book was released on 2008-04-01 with total page 176 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The curious history of a tiny town that all but disappeared . . . Includes photos! Founded by a famously scheming New Hampshire governor, Glastenbury struggled for over a century to break triple digits in population. A small charcoal-making industry briefly flourished after the Civil War, yet by 1920 Glastenbury counted fewer than twenty inhabitants. The end came officially in 1937, when the state, following a spirited debate, formally disincorporated the town. Yet Glastenbury’s legacy lives on in Tyler Resch’s lively and amusing history. Follow Resch as he chronicles the community’s compelling, if always precarious, existence. From mysterious murders and curious development schemes to the township’s eventual annexation by the US Forest Service, Glastenbury tells the ultimately redemptive tale of a community that lost its political status, only to gain a national forest.
