Download or read book Branding Texas written by Leigh Clemons and published by University of Texas Press. This book was released on 2013-05-15 with total page 203 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Ask anyone to name an archetypal Texan, and you're likely to get a larger-than-life character from film or television (say John Wayne's Davy Crockett or J. R. Ewing of TV's Dallas) or a politician with that certain swagger (think LBJ or George W. Bush). That all of these figures are white and male and bursting with self-confidence is no accident, asserts Leigh Clemons. In this thoughtful study of what makes a "Texan," she reveals how Texan identity grew out of the history—and, even more, the myth—of the heroic deeds performed by Anglo men during the Texas Revolution and the years of the Republic and how this identity is constructed and maintained by theatre and other representational practices. Clemons looks at a wide range of venues in which "Texanness" is performed, including historic sites such as the Alamo, the battlefield at Goliad, and the San Jacinto Monument; museums such as the Bob Bullock Texas State History Museum; seasonal outdoor dramas such as Texas! at Palo Duro Canyon; films such as John Wayne's The Alamo and the IMAX's Alamo: The Price of Freedom; plays and TV shows such as the Tuna trilogy, Dallas, and King of the Hill; and the Cavalcade of Texas performance at the 1936 Texas Centennial. She persuasively demonstrates that these performances have created a Texan identity that has become a brand, a commodity that can be sold to the public and even manipulated for political purposes.

Book Synopsis Texas, the Lone Star State by : Rupert Norval Richardson
Download or read book Texas, the Lone Star State written by Rupert Norval Richardson and published by . This book was released on 1997 with total page 484 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Texas, at the beginning of the twenty-first century, is a very different place than it was when the first edition of this text appeared over a half-century ago. Nevertheless, "Texas: The Lone Star State" remains at its core the work of Professor RupertNorvell Richardson, one of the most respected Texas historians of the twentieth century. Through the preceding seven editions this work has evolved as new material and new historical interpretations have made their way into the text, and as new authors have joined the venture. Adrian Anderson and Ernest Wallace joined the text for the third edition, and Cary D. Wintz joins for the eighth. Adding to a strong narrative discussion of nineteenth-century Texas are new materials and information that emphasize the role of women and minorities in Texas history, the impact of industrialization and urbanization, the social and demographic changes that have occurred in twentieth-century Texas, and the transformation of Texas politics at the end of the twentieth century.

Book Synopsis A Texan's Story by : Walter Prescott Webb
Download or read book A Texan's Story written by Walter Prescott Webb and published by University of Oklahoma Press. This book was released on 2020-09-24 with total page 239 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Walter Prescott Webb (1888–1963), a towering figure in Texas and western history and letters, published an abundance of books—but for decades the autobiography he’d written late in life sat largely undisturbed among his papers. Webb’s remarkable story appears here in print for the first time, edited and annotated by Michael Collins, an authority on Texas history. This firsthand account offers readers a window on the life, the work, and the world of one of the most interesting thinkers in the history, and historiography, of Texas. Webb’s narrative carries us from the drought-scarred rim of West Texas known as the Cross Timbers, to the hardscrabble farm life that formed him, to the bright lights of Austin and the University of Texas, where he truly came of age. Fascinating for the picture it summons of the Texas of his youth and the intellectual landscape of his career, Webb’s autobiography also offers intriguing insights into the way his epic work, The Great Plains, evolved. He also describes the struggle behind his groundbreaking history of that storied frontier fighting force the Texas Rangers. Along the way, Webb reflects on the nature of historical research, the role that Texas and the West have played in American history, the importance of education, and the place of universities in our national culture. More than a rare encounter with a true American character’s life and thought, A Texan’s Story is also a uniquely enlightening look into the understanding, writing, and teaching of western American history in its formative years.
