EJ, published since 1912 by the National Council of Teachers of English (NCTE), is a well-estab- lished, widely read journal, and it was a privilege to be its editor. Dur- ing my editorship, one of my most important tasks was providing EJ readers a balanced magazine containing both theory and practice. As a teacher, I knew well the frustration of picking up an education journal only to find mostly academic discussions and theoretical arguments with precious few practicalities. Under my editorship, EJ needed to re- main a place where classroom teachers could indeed find suggestions for something to do on Monday morning. While that something needed- to be sound, based on theory, and workable with real students, it nev- ertheless should also be practical, clear, and geared to the reality of today's classroom. And it needed to be in every issue of EJ. The only solution was a monthly Teaching Ideas column. And, as far as I was concerned, the only person to write it was Diana Mitchell. Diana and I have known each other for almost twenty years. We met at NCTE meetings and conferences, and over the years I came to know and value the kind of teaching genius Diana represents. Through conversations, her writing, her presentations at NCTE conferences, her discussions of her classroom and her students, I became familiar with Diana's work and ideas. What has always impressed me about her is her great devotion to the practicality of teaching and her firm grasp of the realities of the classroom. In addition, for Diana there are never just one or two ways to help students grasp a concept or learn a skill; she can come up with a dozen. There are never just a handful of project ideas; she can provide a basketful. And, in Diana's hands, they all ring true: the cornucopia of concepts that Diana Mitchell presents is uniformly solid, sound, and directly related to either an idea or a text. Further, it comes from her long experience in the classroom with real students in real schools. For me, Diana is a teacher's teacher who, throughout her career in the classroom and in her work with NCTE and English Journal, has been a virtual showcase of best practice. When she invited me to Michi- gan a few years ago to speak to her state teaching organization, I ex- pressed interest in visiting not just her home and her town but also her x Preface school. Walking into her classroom at Sexton High School, I saw what I expected to see: a colorful, lively room, packed with books and posters and plants, where her students were as engaged and busy and noisy and funny and smart and irrepressible as I knew they would be. That visit reinforced for me the fact that the EJ columns Diana had crafted for five years had come, front and center, from her work with these stu- dents and from her experience in the classroom over her long and event- ful teaching career. When I had completed my editorship with English Journal, I thought of the wonderful Teaching Ideas columns Diana had written and for which she had received much reader praise and notice. My own studentspreservice teachershad always turned first to her section of EJ for advice, direction, and help, and I had used many of her ideas in my own classroom. I decided I should make sure that Diana's col- umns from English Journal didn't stay buried in past issues but that they be collected as a book. Diana has been willing to cooperate in this ven- ture, and for me it has been a labor of love and respect. Diana Mitchell is the kind of classroom teacher I am still work- ing on becoming. I continue to learn from her and continue to be stimu- lated by her inventive, joyful approach to teaching. Her columns rep- resent imagination, energy, and all the worthwhile things that we and our students can accomplish in the English classroom. She views a book, a skill, an issue, an idea with fresh eyes and also with appreciation for her multitalented students. Further, like all teachers from whom I have learned, her work stimulates new connections, variations, and interpre- tations. Diana also insists on the importance of using student interest in her planning because she knows that students who are engaged can perform at superior levels and with a real sense of personal satisfaction. Teaching is an exciting but often arduous journey. We need com- panions along the way, master teachers who can inspire and guide. It is my hope that Both Art and Craft: Teaching Ideas That Spark Learning will accompany you on your journey and give you help and resources.

  • James Baldwin As a Writer of Short Fiction: an Evaluation
    JAMES BALDWIN AS A WRITER OF SHORT FICTION: AN EVALUATION dayton G. Holloway A Dissertation Submitted to the Graduate School of Bowling Green State University in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of DOCTOR OF PHILOSOPHY December 1975 618208 ii Abstract Well known as a brilliant essayist and gifted novelist, James Baldwin has received little critical attention as short story writer. This dissertation analyzes his short fiction, concentrating on character, theme and technique, with some attention to biographical parallels. The first three chapters establish a background for the analysis and criticism sections. Chapter 1 provides a biographi­ cal sketch and places each story in relation to Baldwin's novels, plays and essays. Chapter 2 summarizes the author's theory of fiction and presents his image of the creative writer. Chapter 3 surveys critical opinions to determine Baldwin's reputation as an artist. The survey concludes that the author is a superior essayist, but is uneven as a creator of imaginative literature. Critics, in general, have not judged Baldwin's fiction by his own aesthetic criteria. The next three chapters provide a close thematic analysis of Baldwin's short stories. Chapter 4 discusses "The Rockpile," "The Outing," "Roy's Wound," and "The Death of the Prophet," a Bi 1 dungsroman about the tension and ambivalence between a black minister-father and his sons. In contrast, Chapter 5 treats the theme of affection between white fathers and sons and their ambivalence toward social outcasts—the white homosexual and black demonstrator—in "The Man Child" and "Going to Meet the Man." Chapter 6 explores the theme of escape from the black community and the conseauences of estrangement and identity crises in "Previous Condition," "Sonny's Blues," "Come Out the Wilderness" and "This Morning, This Evening, So Soon." The last chapter attempts to apply Baldwin's aesthetic principles to his short fiction.

I find my scripture for this in Genesis 9:27, where God did segregate and separate the three sons of Noah, sending one out to be a servant while the other two remained in the Tabernacle. I say that God has given the word, his Bible. It ain't right for men to end the curse that He's placed upon any human flesh. SEN. JAMES EASTLAND: All the people of the South are in favor of segregation. And Supreme Court or no Supreme Court, we are going to maintain segregated schools down in Dixie. SHERIFF MEL BAILEY: It wasn't funny then, it's still not funny. But suddenly we have the Fourteenth Amendment that took 100 years, brought on by the Civil War, suddenly must be complied with.
