  • Roald Hoffmann and Shir a Leibowitz Pure/Impure
    RoaldHoffmann and Shira Leibowitz Pure/Impure I havemade you an assayerof my people - A refiner- Youare to note and assaytheir ways. They arebronze and iron They areall stubbornlydefiant; They deal basely All of them act corruptly. The bellowspuff; The lead is consumedby fire. Yetthe smeltersmelts to no purpose- The drossis not separatedout. They arecalled "rejected silver," For the Lordhas rejectedthem.1 The Book of Jeremiah6:28-29 leibowitz: In this jeremiad, the prophet berates his people for having gone astray. His language is strong, high, and poetic. And it is interspersed with several passages which indicate substantial familiarity with metallurgy. An interpretation has been provided by the much-maligned former American Pres- ident, Herbert C. Hoover, who was a talented, unusually well-educated mining en- 3ab gineer, and by his wife, Lou H. Hoover.2' The Hoovers discern in the Jeremiah passages the ancient process of cupellation: an impure mixture of silver or gold with undesired admixtures is melted in a cupel, a shallow dish shaped from bone ash. Lead is added. A blast of air oxidizes the non-precious metals. The base metal oxides dis- solve in the lead oxide, which is skimmed off, leaving behind the pure silver or gold. Jeremiahinvokes the process metaphorically;the wickedness of his people is so great, they will not be purified. The Hoovers remark: Fromthe numberof his metaphorsin metallurgicalterms we maywell concludethat Jeremiah was of considerablemetallurgical experience, which may account for his criticaltenor of mind.4 Jeremiah'sstern criticism caught our eye in its conjoining of a scientific or tech- nological argument and an appeal to purity, a condemnation of mixture.

Axelrod The role men and women play in history can be viewed from two perspec­ tives. Either men determine history by their actions or history determines the actions of men. At times a combination of the two may take place. The relationship of Rabbi Henry Cohen 0863-1952) of Galveston and the Galves­ ton Immigration Movement, often called the Galveston Plan, was a case of combining these two historical perspectives. The necessity of a nation and a religious group to change its immigration patterns coupled with the extra­ ordinary humanitarian efforts of a great man created the product of an innova­ tive, well-planned program. This paper will examine the workings of the Galveston Plan and the role Henry Cohen played in making that plan a partial success.

Iddunicipal ^sdudito PROGRAM Program Notes by Dr. Malcolm H. Dewey OVERTURE TO TANNHAUSER..................................................Richard Wagner (1813-1883) Had Richard Wagner capitalized upon the success of his first grand opera, Rienzi (1842), he might have gone on to be another Meyerbeer, but possibly little more. For here was opera which succeeded by the brilliance of the spectacle and the music rather than through intrinsic merit. It matters little that he failed to repeat the success in the Flying Dutchman, which followed within a year; a new Wagner was in evidence, certainly in more than embryonic state. Tempted though he was to return to historic subject matter so as to repeat the success of Rienzi, and he was actually at work on material dealing with Manfred, he turned to German legendary past, the Germany of epic and story, the world of the Minnesingers, and Tann- hauser, presented in 1845, was the outcome. As Wagner related the story, Tannhauser, who once loved the chaste Elizabeth, had found his way to the grotto of Venus.

COOK Under the Direction of Jeffrey B. Glover, PhD ABSTRACT From the excavation of Atlanta's first municipal dumps, a collection of the city’s oldest and most popular medicines has been analyzed. The process of identifying and exploring the stories behind the medicinal vessels of the Metro Atlanta Rapid Transit Authority (MARTA) archaeological collection has led to several paths of inquiry. One such avenue is a look at local manufacturers, their impact, and their products. Focused on embossed glass bottles from 1860-1920 this thesis investigates the roles of medicinal bottles as symbolic for Atlanta’s Gilded Age. I gathered detailed information on nearly 100 products represented by 222 vessels. These artifacts are derived from three sites unearthed during the MARTA excavations conducted by Georgia State University archaeologists during the late-1970s.
