Printed by ADR. iv Editor's Note When I first embarked upon this editing odyssey in September of 2005, I came across the words of Oscar Wilde: "Any fool can make history, but it takes a genius to write it." Now that my voyage has landed, I can attest to the validity of this "Wilde" belief. It was during this latest printing that The Fairmount Folio received more submissions for publication than in any previous year in its existence. I believe this surge in papers is, in part, due to the growing interest Wichita State University students have for the realm of history. Where else can a chemistry student sift through the treasures of King Tut' s tomb after deciphering the chemical formula for table salt? And in what other scholarly field can men and women respectably keep their mentors alive, such as Pope John Paul II or Martin Luther King Jr., while simultaneously enabling throngs of fresh, young minds to absorb their social impact and perhaps inspire them to better this world? Simply put, history is the story of our past and the material with which we mold our future, and I am honored to be a part of this eighth volume of the historical journal known as The Fairmount Folio. In this edition, we have an exceptional range of analytical documents examined: from the educational systems of ancient Greece, to the transplantation of white colonists into Indian societies, to students' political protests in the contemporary world-surely there is a text written that stirs your curiosity. As for the process of compiling, choosing, and editing these papers, I must bestow a .,humbled thank you to Dr. Helen Hundley for her unremitting patience with my relative inexperience as an editor and her vast knowledge of not only history, but of this process as a whole. Her exceptional talent for coordinating the production of the Folio and the meetings of those involved was instrumental in the success of the journal. Her explanation of the process were very appreciated, welcomed, and calming during those hectic days at Wichita State where midterms unfortunately seem to coincide with publishing deadlines. A second thank you must be sent to those on the Folio's editorial board-Dr. George Dehner, Dr. Robert Owens, Angela Gumm and, of course, Dr. Helen Hundley. To be honest, I was ecstatic over the care and attention to minute detail each member spent on all eligible papers given the fact that there were so many submissions, no paper clip, rubber band, or extra-extra­ large yellow envelope could house a member's copies to be reviewed. In addition, I express gratitude towards Wichita State's Department of History and their College of Liberal Arts and Sciences for tirelessly supporting this journal and funding its publication. Finally, I must give recognition to Chuck Crandall and Troy Lister from ADR Publishing for his expertise in printing scholarly material and, more importantly, conveying that knowledge to this year's editor of the Folio. In short: God Bless e-mail. Now please enjoy the treasures we have acquired on our nine-month journey through history ... Athena Stephanopoulos May 2006 .. The March of the Muses 1 The March of the Muses: The Development of Higher Education in Athens from Pericles to the Paripatos James Regier Western society has been greatly influenced in numerous ways by ancient Greek society and culture, not the least of which was the Greek educational system. Alexander the Great's conquests relied in many ways upon technology, philosophy, and mathematics taught in Greek institutions of higher learning. How ironic then, that even two centuries prior to Alexander the Great, in the fifth century BC, a clear concept of higher education had yet to be developed. The development in Greek and Hellenistic education from the fifth to the third centuries BC bordered on the miraculous: from having no higher education whatsoever, Greek society developed and built a fairly complex system. This essay will attempt to take a closer look into the development of Greek education itself, focusing on several key movements and characters. Before going much further, it seems necessary to define the scope of education with which this essay will be dealing. Homeric writings trace education back to the gods. Artemis, for example, taught hunting to Scamandum, Apollo taught Calchas to prophesy, and Athena ' taught Phereclus the art of shipbuilding. Other examples of skill-related education are well established in Homer's writings as well. 1 However, the Athenian education that emerged during the sixth century BC was considerably different from previous forms. Earlier, education was largely based on the model of a master with only one or two apprentices, to whom he taught the skills of his trade. Usually, he would teach his apprentices at his place of business, which could be located anywhere throughout the city. The education that emerged in the sixth century, on the other hand, was based on the model of a full time, professional teacher with a class of several students in a centralized location that was usually devoted to education. This newer education focused much more on a cultural training that was designed to strengthen citizenship, character, and virtue, rather than trade skills.2 It is this newer cultural education upon which this essay will focus. At its origin during the sixth century BC, Athenian education was primarily designed to teach leisure-time activities to the children of the wealthy aristocracy. Athenian aristocrats devoted their days to athletic contests and their evenings to entertaining each other with songs and recitations at drinking parties, or symposia. Schools were designed to educate privileged children, usually boys, in the necessary music and literature, or mousike, as well as the necessary physical contest skills, or gymnastika, aiming not only to achieve excellence in these fields, but also to attain moral excellence. The end goal was to form the child into a good person, a useful 1 Frederick A. G. Beck, Greek Education 450-350 BC, (New York: Barnes and Noble, 1964), 49. 1 Beck, 72. The March of the Muses 2 citizen, and a good conversationalist. 3 Perhaps Xenophon sums up the need and purpose for education among the aristocracy best in his Memorabilia. Nor does it satisfy the parents merely to feed their offspring, but as soon as the children appear capable oflearning anything, they teach them whatever they know that they may be of use for their conduct in life; and whatever they consider another more capable of communicating than themselves, they send their sons to him at their own expense, and take care to adopt every possible course that their children may be as much improved as possible.4 The first of the two major subject areas of old Athenian education, Gymnastike, consisted largely of physical training and wrestling, which were necessary military skills, but also skills necessary for aristocratic contest. The students would receive physical instruction from their paidiotribes and be expected to practice their skills on their own. Ironically, gymnastike instruction did not necessarily require the use of a gymnasium. Instead, they took place in pa/aestra, or sport halls, which were located all over Athens, including within the three gymnasia. Although often the terms gymnasia and pa/aestra are used interchangeably, it is important to note several important differences. Whereas palaestra were sport halls dedicated purely to physical activities, gymnasia held a much broader use. Additionally, while gymnasia were publicly owned and open to all Athenian citizens, palaestra were mostly privately owned, with the exception of those located within gymnasia. 5 The second major portion of the "old education" was mousike, which consisted of the areas of education inspired by the muses. These included music, prose and poetry, largely from the works of Homer, and occasionally painting and sculpture. Additionally, children had to learn their language and learn it well, which may not have been such an easy task, as word forms and conjugations were even more numerous then than they are now.6 Any structure or open space served well for the study of music and letters, but there were also didaska/eia built as classrooms.7 Such structures were not necessary, though, particularly in the Mediterranean climate.

  • The Withering Away of the American Labor Party
    THE WITHERING AWAY OF THE AMERICAN LABOR PARTY BY ALAN WOLFE Assistant Professor of Political Science Douglass College, Rutgers University EW YORK State's American Labor Party (1936-56) existed in a variety of forms: pro-Democratic electoral vehicle (1936), independent third party (1937-44), one of two "third-parties" in the state (1944-47), state branch of the national Progressive Party (1948-52), and ideological interest group with strong pro-communist leanings (1953-56). Most scholarly studies of the party, such as those of Bone, Sarasohn, and Moscow,1 which end in either 1946 or 1948, have treated only the first three forms. Because of this, the last eight years of the American Labor Party remain unexamined. Text-book treatments skip over the 1948-56 period with passing references to communist domination or infiltration.2 This unfortunate lacuna deserves to be filled, and the recent acquisition by the Rutgers University Library of the party's papers for this period provides the wherewithal to do so.3 1948 was a key year in the history of the American Labor Party because of the candidacy of Henry A. Wallace for President. No sooner had the year begun than on January 7, at a meeting of the state executive committee of the party, the ALP split over the ques- tion of endorsing Roosevelt's former Vice-President. Anticipating a strong pro-Wallace move, the state chairman, state treasurer, and 1 Hugh A.

  • As Jewish Life in the Late Nineteenth and Twentieth Centuries Became
    1 Introduction Matthew Hoffman and Henry Srebrnik s Jewish life in the late nineteenth and twentieth centuries became A more economically and politically precarious, various movements arose which claimed they had found the “solution” to the political dilemmas facing the Jewish people. Some were religious, some frankly assimilationist, some completely universalistic and adherents of socialist doctrines, and some, of course, were nationalistic and Zionist. One political movement, though, combined elements of two strands, Marxist universalism and Jewish nation- alism. This grouping of like-minded organizations, active mainly between 1917 and 1956, we have termed the Jewish Communist movement. It had active members throughout the Jewish diaspora, in particular in the various countries of Europe and North America, as well as in Australia, Palestine, South Africa, and South America. These were later interconnected on a global level through international movements such as the World Jewish Cultural Union, or Alveltlekher Yidisher Kultur Farband (YKUF), founded in 1937. YKUF, which operated mainly in Yiddish, created a great variety of newspapers and theoretical and literary journals, which allowed Jewish Communists to communicate, disseminate information, and debate issues such as Jewish nationality and statehood independently of other Commu- nists. Though officially part of the larger world Communist movement, in reality the Jewish Communists developed their own specific ideology, which was infused as much by Jewish sources—Labour Zionism, the

  • Antisemitism and the American Far Left Stephen H
    Cambridge University Press 978-1-107-03601-7 - Antisemitism and the American Far Left Stephen H. Norwood Frontmatter More information Antisemitism and the American Far Left Stephen H. Norwood has written the fi rst systematic study of the American far left’s role in both propagating and combating antisemi- tism. This book covers Communists from 1920 onward, Trotskyists, the New Left and its black nationalist allies, and the contemporary remnants of the New Left. Professor Norwood analyzes the defi ciencies of the American far left’s explanations of Nazism and the Holocaust. He explores far left approaches to militant Islam, from condemnation of its fi erce antisemitism in the 1930s to recent apologies for jihad. Norwood discusses the far left’s use of long-standing theological and economic antisemitic stereotypes that the far right also embraced. The study analyzes the far left’s antipathy to Jewish culture, as well as its occasional efforts to promote it. He considers how early Marxist and Bolshevik paradigms continued to shape American far left views of Jewish identity, Zionism, Israel, and antisemitism. Stephen H. Norwood (PhD, Columbia University) is Professor of History and Judaic Studies at the University of Oklahoma. He is the author of fi ve books on American history, including The Third Reich in the Ivory Tower (Cambridge 2009), which was a Finalist for the National Jewish Book Award for Holocaust Studies.
