Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Warrenton Virginia BISPHAM HOUSE Introduction The House – Part 1 A noteworthy part of this illustrated account is about the Bispham’s who built the house, ca. 1856, at the highest elevation in town (660’ vs. usually claimed point 646’ at Court House Square)) It is called Baptist Hill, for the nearby church and minister’s house next door to the Bispham’s. Soon after the house was built, the Civil War began. Because the town was at an important crossroads and rail branch line terminus, it became an army supply depot. Consequently, the two sides changed occupation 67 times. The first family’s experiences and neighbors add to understanding the times in a small Southern town. Included are interesting happenings and images of early scenes in Warrenton. All owners to current time are identified along with their caretaking and additions to the property. The house and owners help introduce captivating local and national history. Scrapbook – Part 2 The Scrapbook sections are three fourths of the document where images bring to life local events and people that inform about the Warrenton area through the years including: Historical Maps, slavery, General McClellan's farewell to his troops; distinguished people, visits by Presidents, Lafayette, and former residents: The Great Chief Justice John Marshall, John Singleton Mosby, Anthony Dangerfield, Dangerfield Newby, plus others. Artwork Surprising artworks amplify the local story; many by renowned Richard Norris Brooke; three creative murals by Stewart Burgess White; and three paintings of Mosby’s Berryville Raid; Edwin Austin Forbes, Civil War scenes. The art’s subject matter stimulates critical thinking that may inspire further research for forming educated judgments about historical times and events Interpretive History Used throughout is a teaching technique which combines facts, illustrative photos, and maps (high resolution, when possible, enables zooming for details) with stimulating explanatory information. It helps to tell a story about Warrenton, Fauquier, and America. Many images convey their own tale. This study began when the eighth owners wanted to gather photos and information about the old place. Their expanded discoveries and use of over 500 splendid illustrations provide a remarkable history lesson in this free eBook available to others interested in historical Warrenton Virginia and beyond.

This book was released on 2024-10-01 with total page 191 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This is part of a three document series. All with the same title and similar content. “Slide Show with Notes:” Which is this version, can be read as a stand alone, or as a reference for an educator projecting just the slide images for lecture, discussion and teaching. Parents may choose to read along with their children while explaining illustrations. The “Slide Show” version is for projecting just the slides from a PDF. Divided into Chapters (blocks of learning). The images are uniquely useful in stimulating further research and for enhancing visual learning. The “Document” is the original illustrated narrative version available as a stand-alone document. It is the unabridged version having more details than the Slide Show with Notes. Woven into this presentation about Slavery is the significance of the ideas and ideals set forth in our founding documents that establish the purpose of how we live together in our nation. Also, included are sections on the principles of character. known and unknown heroes that helped end slavery, and the symbolism of our flag that represents "Freedom, Dignity and True Meaning of being an American." The two slide show versions were born with a question posed by Karen Hughes White, a founder of the Afro-American Historical Association of Fauquier, after reading the original document, she asked if I could give a talk about the subject, I said yes, I have experience and I use slides – which I had not thought of producing. All three versions are available for free on Google Books. Hope they are helpful.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: They also consider the artists' responses to foreign prototypes, travel and training, changing exhibition venues, and audience expectations. The persistence of certain themes--childhood, marriage, the family, and the community; the attainment and reinforcement of citizenship; attitudes toward race; the frontier as reality and myth; and the process and meaning of making art--underscores evolving styles and standards of storytelling. Divided into four chronological sections, the book begins with the years surrounding the American Revolution and the birth of the new republic, when painters such as Copley, Peale, and Samuel F. B. Morse incorporated stories within the expressive bounds of portraiture. During the Jacksonian and pre-Civil War decades from about 1830 to 1860, Mount, Bingham, Lilly Martin Spencer, and others painted genre scenes featuring lighthearted narratives that growing audiences for art could easily read and understand.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In the past four decades Native American/First Nations Literature has emerged as a literary and academic field and it is now read, taught, and theorized in many educational settings outside the United States and Canada. Native American and First Nations authors have also broadened their themes and readership by exploring transnational contexts and foreign realities, and through translation into major and minor languages, thus establishing creative networks with other literary communities around the world. However, when their texts are taught abroad, the perpetuation of Indian stereotypes, mystifications, and misconceptions is still a major issue that non-Native readers, students, and teachers continue to struggle with. To counter such distorted representations and neo/colonialist readings, this book presents a strategic selection of critical case studies that set specific texts within cross-cultural contexts wherein Native-based methodologies and key concepts are placed at the center of the reading practice. The challenging role of teachers and researchers as potential intermediaries and responsible disseminators of what Gayatri C. Spivak calls “transnational literacy” as well as the reception of Native North American works, contexts, and themes by international readers thus becomes a primary focus of attention. This volume provides a set of critical analyses and practical resources that may enable teachers outside the United States and Canada to incorporate Native American/First Nations literature and related cultural and historical texts into their teaching practices and current research interests in a creative, decolonizing, and responsible manner.
