Download or read book North Carolina Architecture written by Catherine W. Bishir and published by UNC Press Books. This book was released on 2014-03-19 with total page 680 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This award-winning, lavishly illustrated history displays the wide range of North Carolina's architectural heritage, from colonial times to the beginning of World War II. North Carolina Architecture addresses the state's grand public and private buildings that have become familiar landmarks, but it also focuses on the quieter beauty of more common structures: farmhouses, barns, urban dwellings, log houses, mills, factories, and churches. These buildings, like the people who created them and who have used them, are central to the character of North Carolina. Now in a convenient new format, this portable edition of North Carolina Architecture retains all of the text of the original edition as well as hundreds of halftones by master photographer Tim Buchman. Catherine Bishir's narrative analyzes construction and design techniques and locates the structures in their cultural, political, and historical contexts. This extraordinary history of North Carolina's built world presents a unique and valuable portrait of the state.

Book excerpt: The North Carolina State Capitol is among the most architecturally sophisticated American buildings constructed in the first half of the nineteenth century. As completed, this Greek Revival building was of a scale and refinement previously unknown in the state. The Commissioners charged with the design of the new Capitol had grand visions for the new structure. They determined to construct a monument that "will vie with the finest specimens of European architecture" and designed it "with the principles of Architecture...and rules of Architectural taste." The Capitol's design is primarily the work of three architects: William Nichols, Alexander Jackson Davis and David Paton. While each architect significantly contributed to the completed building, architectural historians agree that the design is primarily the work of Alexander Jackson Davis, then with the firm of Town and Davis. Each succeeding architect, however, effected a higher degree of architectural refinement and detail, a situation which rarely occurs in the design and construction of major civic monuments. As completed, the building exceeded expectations. The opening of the new Capitol coincided with the completion of the Raleigh and Gaston Railroad and was met with great celebration. The Capitol has consistently been praised by visitors to Raleigh since its completion. The late Jane Davies was the principal biographer of Alexander Jackson Davis. She has stated that the Capitol at Raleigh and New York City's Customs House are Davis's masterworks. More recently an officer of the Institute of Classical Architecture and Art toured the building and noted that no building of this architectural sophistication existed in Washington, D.C., at its completion in 1840. The majestic North Carolina State Capitol stands today as intended: "one of the finest specimens extant of classic taste in America." The North Carolina State Capitol Foundation invites you to explore the scholarship of John Sanders and the artistry of photographer and North Carolina native John Hall in celebration of this impressive National Landmark.

Download or read book The Politics of Size written by Rosemarie Zagarri and published by Cornell University Press. This book was released on 2018-05-31 with total page 180 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: After the Revolution, Americans faced the challenge of expanding representative government throughout an extensive territory. The complex process of adapting republicanism to a vast area generated many conflicts over representation in both states and the nation—conflicts that produced a division between the large states and the small states. Using concepts of historical geography, Rosemarie Zagarri examines how Americans' notions about space influenced the writing of the U.S. Constitution and the shaping of the nation's political institutions. In The Politics of Size, Zagarri offers a bold explanation of political alignments in the early republic. The split between large and small states emerged, she asserts, not at the Constitutional Convention of 1787 but in the years before, during debates over the relocation of state capitals and the reapportionment of state legislatures. The local conflicts culminated in the fierce struggle between the two factions at the federal convention. Far from ending there, the division persisted well into the nineteenth century, resurfacing when Congress discussed such controversial issues as congressional redistricting, the selection of presidential electors, and the reapportionment of the House of Representatives. Only in 1850 did the conflict based on state size merge with, and become subsumed by, the growing controversy between North and South.
