Book Synopsis Engineers of Independence by : Paul K. Walker
Download or read book Engineers of Independence written by Paul K. Walker and published by The Minerva Group, Inc.. This book was released on 2002-08 with total page 424 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This collection of documents, including many previously unpublished, details the role of the Army engineers in the American Revolution. Lacking trained military engineers, the Americans relied heavily on foreign officers, mostly from France, for sorely needed technical assistance. Native Americans joined the foreign engineer officers to plan and carry out offensive and defensive operations, direct the erection of fortifications, map vital terrain, and lay out encampments. During the war Congress created the Corps of Engineers with three companies of engineer troops as well as a separate geographer's department to assist the engineers with mapping. Both General George Washington and Major General Louis Lebéque Duportail, his third and longest serving Chief Engineer, recognized the disadvantages of relying on foreign powers to fill the Army's crucial need for engineers. America, they contended, must train its own engineers for the future. Accordingly, at the war's end, they suggested maintaining a peacetime engineering establishment and creating a military academy. However, Congress rejected the proposals, and the Corps of Engineers and its companies of sappers and miners mustered out of service. Eleven years passed before Congress authorized a new establishment, the Corps of Artillerists and Engineers.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "Beaumarchais and the War of American Independence" in 2 volumes is one of the best-known works by an American historian Elizabeth Sarah Kite. Pierre Beaumarchais (1732-1799) was a French polymath who rose in French society and became influential in the court of Louis XV as an inventor and music teacher. He made a number of important business and social contacts, and played various roles as a diplomat and spy. An early French supporter of American independence, Beaumarchais lobbied the French government on behalf of the American rebels during the American War of Independence. Before France officially entered the war in 1778, Beaumarchais played a major role in delivering French munitions, money and supplies to the American army._x000D_ Volume 1:_x000D_ Early life_x000D_ First Financial Successes_x000D_ Business Negotiations in Spain_x000D_ Beaumarchais's Return from Madrid_x000D_ The Famous Memoirs of Beaumarchais_x000D_ Beaumarchais Goes to London in Quality of Secret Agent of Louis XV_x000D_ Beaumarchais's Second Mission Under Louis XVI_x000D_ Playing Figaro upon the Stage of Life_x000D_ Visits the Empress of Austria_x000D_ The Character of Figaro_x000D_ The First Performance of Le Barbier de Séville_x000D_ Founder of the First Society of Dramatic Authors..._x000D_ Volume 2:_x000D_ Beaumarchais's Earliest Activities in the Cause of American Independence_x000D_ First Steps of the Government of France_x000D_ Beaumarchais's Memoirs to the King_x000D_ Beaumarchais's English Connections_x000D_ Memoirs Explaining to the King the Plan of His Commercial House_x000D_ Suspicions of England Aroused Through Indiscretions of Friends of America_x000D_ The Declaration of Independence and Its Effect in Europe_x000D_ Beaumarchais's Activity in Getting Supplies to America_x000D_ Letters to Congress_x000D_ The Mariage de Figaro_x000D_ House of Beaumarchais Searched_x000D_ Declared an Emigré_x000D_ Confiscation of his Goods_x000D_ Imprisonment of his Family_x000D_ The Ninth Thermidor Comes to Save Them_x000D_ Beaumarchais After his Return from Exile_x000D_ Correspondence with Bonaparte_x000D_ Pleads for Lafayette Imprisoned_x000D_ Death of Beaumarchais...

Book Synopsis Memory, Empire, and Postcolonialism by : Alec Hargreaves
Download or read book Memory, Empire, and Postcolonialism written by Alec Hargreaves and published by Lexington Books. This book was released on 2005-09-08 with total page 259 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Long repressed following the collapse of empire, memories of the French colonial experience have recently gained unprecedented visibility. In popular culture, scholarly research, personal memoirs, public commemorations, and new ethnicities associated with the settlement of postcolonial immigrant minorities, the legacy of colonialism is now more apparent in France than at any time in the past. How is this upsurge of interest in the colonial past to be explained? Does the commemoration of empire necessarily imply glorification or condemnation? To what extent have previously marginalized voices succeeded in making themselves heard in new narratives of empire? While veils of secrecy have been lifted, what taboos still remain and why? These are among the questions addressed by an international team of leading researchers in this interdisciplinary volume, which will interest scholars in a wide range of disciplines including French studies, history, literature, cultural studies, and anthropology.

Book Synopsis The Future of Identity by : Kenneth Hoover
Download or read book The Future of Identity written by Kenneth Hoover and published by Lexington Books. This book was released on 2004-06-15 with total page 184 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: As the world bears witness to the terror and warfare provoked by people's sense of who they are, how they are regarded, and what they deserve, we have entered into the 'age of identity.' Erik Erikson (1902-1994) was the prophet of this new age. His lifetime of clinical and interdisciplinary work on human development focused on the formation and maintenance of identity among people of diverse backgrounds: black, white, and Native American; rich, middle class, and poor; male and female. In this volume scholars from various disciplines, some who knew, worked with, and became good friends of Erikson, discuss and assess his legacy, and investigate the challenges that identity brings to the contemporary world. Contributions to this volume frame the challenge identity poses to contemporary scholarship through Erikson's own work, research in empirical and clinical psychology, individual and rational choice theories, Marxism, democratic theories of political participation, fundamentalism, and globalization . Through the book's truly trans-disciplinary scope, Erikson and his scholarship beg to be revisited by psychologists, sociologists, anthropologists, and students of interdisciplinary social sciences and humanities.
