  • AMERICAN MANHOOD in the CIVIL WAR ERA a Dissertation Submitted
    UNMADE: AMERICAN MANHOOD IN THE CIVIL WAR ERA A Dissertation Submitted to the Graduate School of the University of Notre Dame in Partial Fulfillment of the Requirements for the Degree of Doctor in Philosophy by Michael E. DeGruccio _________________________________ Gail Bederman, Director Graduate Program in History Notre Dame, Indiana July 2007 UNMADE: AMERICAN MANHOOD IN THE CIVIL WAR ERA Abstract by Michael E. DeGruccio This dissertation is ultimately a story about men trying to tell stories about themselves. The central character driving the narrative is a relatively obscure officer, George W. Cole, who gained modest fame in central New York for leading a regiment of black soldiers under the controversial General Benjamin Butler, and, later, for killing his attorney after returning home from the war. By weaving Cole into overlapping micro-narratives about violence between white officers and black troops, hidden war injuries, the personal struggles of fellow officers, the unbounded ambition of his highest commander, Benjamin Butler, and the melancholy life of his wife Mary Barto Cole, this dissertation fleshes out the essence of the emergent myth of self-made manhood and its relationship to the war era. It also provides connective tissue between the top-down war histories of generals and epic battles and the many social histories about the “common soldier” that have been written consciously to push the historiography away from military brass and Lincoln’s administration. Throughout this dissertation, mediating figures like Cole and those who surrounded him—all of lesser ranks like major, colonel, sergeant, or captain—hem together what has previously seemed like the disconnected experiences of the Union military leaders, and lowly privates in the field, especially African American troops.

As the 1990s progressed, masculinity crises and millennial anxieties intersected with an increasing fixation on nostalgic popular histories of World War II. The representative masculine figures proffered in Steven Spielberg films and Tom Hanks roles had critical relationships to cultural crises surrounding race, reproduction and sexuality. Nostalgic narratives emerged as way to fortify the American nation-state and resolve its social problems. The WWII cultural trend, through the specter of tributes to a dying generation, used nostalgic texts and images to create imaginary American landscapes that centered as much on contemporary masculinity and the political and social perspective of the Boomer generation as it did on the prior one.

  • Ethiopian Jews from the President's Desk
    INTERNATIONAL CHRISTIAN EMBASSY JERUSALEM // SEPTEMBER/OCTOBER 2019 // GLOBAL EDITION WORD FROM JERUSALEM ICEJ OFFERS NEW BEGINNING FEAST IN ISRAEL FOR 2019 BEGINNINGS ETHIOPIAN JEWS FROM THE PRESIDENT'S DESK Dear friends, In Matthew 24, the first warning Jesus gives in his Mt. Olivet discourse on the ‘end times’ is “do not be deceived”. In 1943 a book was published titled Das Antike Weltjudentum (“World Judaism of Antiquity”), co-written by two leading academics in Nazi Germany. One was Prof. Eugen Fischer, head of the Kaiser Wilhelm Institute of Anthropology, who was a leading proponent of ‘Social Darwinism’ and the Third Reich‘s racial theory. Fischer inspired the Nuremberg Laws and greatly influenced Hitler‘s personal views on the Jews. The other author was the well-known German theologian Gerhard Kittel, known for his seminal dictionary on biblical Greek – which is still a standard text for many Bible students today. Kittel also was a leading figure in the Entjudungsinstitut, Hitler’s special institute to de-Judaize the Bible. The International Christian Embassy Jerusalem was established All this demonstrates why the words of Jesus remain so important for believers today. in 1980 in recognition of the biblical significance of Jerusalem ‘Do not be deceived’ is a call to be spiritually alert. It is aimed at the Church rather and its unique connection to the Jewish people. Today the ICEJ represents millions of Christians, churches and denominations to than the world. Even the best-educated theologians are not immune to deception. the nation and people of Israel. We recognise in the restoration Derek Prince once stated: “If you believe you cannot be deceived, then you already are of Israel the faithfulness of God to keep His ancient covenant deceived.” One of the most important doctrines of the Bible under attack today is that with the Jewish people.
