The Mexican Indios are of the same opinion, and pluck their bananas as they ripen in succession, on the bunches dangling by scores from the rafters of their little log cabins. If the maize crop fails in one of the two yearly har- vest seasons, they get along for a while with bananas and eggs alone, but even then need an urgent invitation before they will affront their Hindoo stomachs with flesh food.

  • Popular Health Movements and Diet Reform in Nineteenth-Century America
    The Japanese Journal of American Studies, No. 21 (2010) Popular Health Movements and Diet Reform in Nineteenth-Century America Nanami SUZUKI* INTRODUCTION Food is deeply related to culture and society.1 While human beings have consumed a variety of things in their daily lives, they have attached a wide range of cultural meanings to what they select to eat, how they prepare their food, with whom they eat, as well as what they consume on special occasions. Several kinds of foods exist simply to be eaten at various ceremonial gatherings held at specific stages in the life cycle. Food is thus an impor- tant measure expressing the way that humans are linked to the environ- ment and to one another. Eating is an expression of one’s way of life, and statements of one’s faith and beliefs are often demonstrated through food-related codes and ceremonies. The United States grew with immigrants from diverse areas whose individual food cultures were an important element in their ethnic iden- tities. A new “creolized” food culture took shape through the fusion of those food cultures and foodstuffs in the new land in a concrete mani- festation of the meeting of cultures. The food culture of the United States experienced great changes from the 1820s to the 1890s. There was a significant expansion of the country physically and at the same time the promotion of internal migration. By Copyright © 2010 Nanami Suzuki. All rights reserved.

Chapter 1 The Western Health Reform Institute Paul U. Cameron and Lynden J. Rogers Introduction The grand opening of the Western Health Reform Institute (WHRI) in Battle Creek, Michigan, on September 5, 1866, was a gala occasion. It was only a short time after Ellen White had focussed attention on the need for such an institution during her stirring address to the 1866 General Conference Session. Despite having limited means, some $11,000 had been raised by gift or subscription loan during a fundraising campaign spearheaded by Elders John N. Loughborough in the West and John N. Andrews in the East. On September 11 the editor of the Review and Herald, Uriah Smith, reported on the successful opening, noting that, “it was less than four short months ago, for the time when this matter first began to take practical shape among our people.”1 J.

    Why are tobacco companies allowed to spend $11/2 billion dollars per year to pro­ mote deadly products-with many of their messages intended for children? How can this situation be tolerated? How did it arise? What can we do about it? Can pro­ tection be achieved in a manner compati­ ble with free enterprise and individual freedom? How should the rights of smokers and nonsmokers be balanced? Must nonsmokers subsidize the cost of treating cigarette-induced disease? How much protection should nonsmokers have from drifting cigarette smoke? How can smokers escape from the grip of nicotine addiction and psychological dependence on smoking?

  • A History of Veganism from 1806
    1 World Veganism – past, present, and future By John Davis, former IVU Manager and Historian A collection of blogs © John Davis 2010-12 Introduction This PDF e-book is about 8mb, 219 pages A4, (equivalent to 438 page paperback book), so I strongly recommend that you save a copy to your own disk, then open it in the Adobe Acrobat Reader. That way, you won’t have to download it all again if you want to read more of it sometime later. Creating this as a PDF e-book has several advantages, especially if you are reading this on a device connected to the internet. For example: - in the blog about interviews on SMTV, just click on the links to watch the videos - in the bibliography click to read a complete scan of an original very old book. - on the contents page click a link to go direct to any item, then click ‘back to top’. - you can also, of course, use other features such as search, zoom etc. etc. - a great advance on printed books… It should work on any device, though an ipad/tablet is ideal for this as there are lots of big colour photos, or on smart-phones try rotating for best results, on a larger computer monitor try view/page display/two up, to read it like a book. The blogs were posted weekly from February 2010 to December 2012 and each is self- contained, with the assumption that readers might not have seen any of the others. So feel free to start anywhere, and read them in any order, no need to read from the beginning.

  • Unlikely Rhetorical Allies: How Science Warranted U.S
    ABSTRACT Title of Document: UNLIKELY RHETORICAL ALLIES: HOW SCIENCE WARRANTED U.S. WOMEN’S RIGHTS IN NINETEENTH-CENTURY DISCOURSES OF SEXUALITY. Wendy Hayden, Doctor of Philosophy, 2007 Directed By: Professor Jeanne Fahnestock, English Department This dissertation reads the nineteenth-century discourses on female sexuality of the free love and social purity movements against the background of the scientific discoveries of the time. At the same time that scientists produced new knowledge of the body, American feminists in social movements for free love and social purity began to critique how the marriage system allowed the sexual subjugation of women, to demand the right to control when they chose to have sex and under what conditions, and to urge the elimination of sexual double-standards, repressive ideologies of female sexuality, and even the marriage system itself. The central scientific disciplines of physiology, bacteriology, embryology, heredity provide the basis for these women’s arguments. Each chapter of this dissertation recounts the scientific discoveries in a particular discipline, then traces the dissemination of the new scientific knowledge through medical popularizations, and then reads the discourse of the reformers as entering this larger conversation about sexuality and women’s rights. Using the rhetorical theories of Lloyd Bitzer’s “rhetorical situation” and Stephen Toulmin’s model of argument, it shows how women drew on the exigence, framework, and warrants of the new sciences to make arguments for women’s rights. Reading these women’s arguments against the background of science reveals new dimensions to their arguments. It also shows that science provided the warrants for women’s rights.
