  • Hoosier Hard Times - Life Was a Strange, Colorful Kaleidoscopic Welter Then
    one Hoosier Hard Times - Life was a strange, colorful kaleidoscopic welter then. It has remained so ever since. A HOOSIER HOLIDAY since her marriage in 1851, Sarah Schänäb Dreiser had given birth al- most every seventeen or eighteen months. Twelve years younger than her husband, this woman of Moravian-German stock had eloped with John Paul Dreiser at the age of seventeen. If the primordial urge to reproduce weren’t enough to keep her regularly enceinte, religious forces were. For Theodore Dreiser’s father, a German immigrant from a walled city near the French border more than ninety percent Catholic, was committed to prop- agating a faith his famous son would grow up to despise. Sarah’s parents were Mennonite farmers near Dayton, Ohio, their Czechoslovakian ances- tors having migrated west through the Dunkard communities of German- town, Bethlehem, and Beaver Falls, Pennsylvania. Sarah’s father disowned his daughter for marrying a Catholic and converting to his faith. At 8:30 in the morning of August 27, 1871, Hermann Theodor Dreiser became her twelfth child. He began in a haze of superstition and summer fog in Terre Haute, Indiana, a soot-darkened industrial town on the banks of the Wabash about seventy-five miles southwest of Indianapolis. His mother, however, seems to have been a somewhat ambivalent par- ent even from the start. After bearing her first three children in as many years, Sarah apparently began to shrink from her maternal responsibilities, as such quick and repeated motherhood sapped her youth. Her restlessness drove her to wish herself single again.

  • Names in Marilynne Robinson's <I>Gilead</I> and <I>Home</I>
    names, Vol. 58 No. 3, September, 2010, 139–49 Names in Marilynne Robinson’s Gilead and Home Susan Petit Emeritus, College of San Mateo, California, USA The titles of Marilynne Robinson’s complementary novels Gilead (2004) and Home (2008) and the names of their characters are rich in allusions, many of them to the Bible and American history, making this tale of two Iowa families in 1956 into an exploration of American religion with particular reference to Christianity and civil rights. The books’ titles suggest healing and comfort but also loss and defeat. Who does the naming, what the name is, and how the person who is named accepts or rejects the name reveal the sometimes difficult relationships among these characters. The names also reinforce the books’ endorsement of a humanistic Christianity and a recommitment to racial equality. keywords Bible, American history, slavery, civil rights, American literature Names are an important source of meaning in Marilynne Robinson’s prize-winning novels Gilead (2004) and Home (2008),1 which concern the lives of two families in the fictional town of Gilead, Iowa,2 in the summer of 1956. Gilead is narrated by the Reverend John Ames, at least the third Congregationalist minister of that name in his family, in the form of a letter he hopes his small son will read after he grows up, while in Home events are recounted in free indirect discourse through the eyes of Glory Boughton, the youngest child of Ames’ lifelong friend, Robert Boughton, a retired Presbyterian minister. Both Ames, who turns seventy-seven3 that summer (2004: 233), and Glory, who is thirty-eight, also reflect on the past and its influence on the present.

  • Report on the History of Matthew P. Deady and Frederick S. Dunn
    Report on the History of Matthew P. Deady and Frederick S. Dunn By David Alan Johnson Professor, Portland State University former Managing Editor (1997-2014), Pacific Historical Review Quintard Taylor Emeritus Professor and Scott and Dorothy Bullitt Professor of American History. University of Washington Marsha Weisiger Julie and Rocky Dixon Chair of U.S. Western History, University of Oregon In the 2015-16 academic year, students and faculty called for renaming Deady Hall and Dunn Hall, due to the association of Matthew P. Deady and Frederick S. Dunn with the infamous history of race relations in Oregon in the nineteenth and early twentieth centuries. President Michael Schill initially appointed a committee of administrators, faculty, and students to develop criteria for evaluating whether either of the names should be stripped from campus buildings. Once the criteria were established, President Schill assembled a panel of three historians to research the history of Deady and Dunn to guide his decision-making. The committee consists of David Alan Johnson, the foremost authority on the history of the Oregon Constitutional Convention and author of Founding the Far West: California, Oregon, Nevada, 1840-1890 (1992); Quintard Taylor, the leading historian of African Americans in the U.S. West and author of several books, including In Search of the Racial Frontier: African Americans in the American West, 1528-1990 (1998); and Marsha Weisiger, author of several books, including Dreaming of Sheep in Navajo Country (2009). Other historians have written about Matthew Deady and Frederick Dunn; although we were familiar with them, we began our work looking at the primary sources—that is, the historical record produced by Deady, Dunn, and their contemporaries.

  • Redacted for Privacy
    AN ABSTRACT OF THE THESIS OF M. Susan Van Laere for the degreeof Master of Arts in Applied Anthropologypresented on March 6, 2000. Title: The Grizzly Bear andthe Deer: The History of Federal Indian Policy and Its Impacton the Coast Reservation Tribes of Oregon, 1856-1877. Abstract Approved Redacted for privacy David R. Brauner The Coast Reservation of Oregonwas established under Executive Order of President Franklin Pierce in November,1855, as a homeland for the southern Oregon tribes. It was an immense, isolatedwilderness, parts of which had burned earlier inthe century. There were some prairies where farmingwas possible, but because the reservation system itself and farming,particularly along the coast,were unknown entities, life for the Indianswas a misery for years. Those responsible for the establishmentof the reservation were subject to the vagaries of the weather, the wilderness,the Congress, and the Office of Indian Affairs. Agents were accountable, not only forthe lives of Oregon Indians, but also for allof the minute details involved in answeringto a governmental agency. Some of the agentswere experienced with the tribes ofwestern Oregon; others were not. All of them believedthat the only way to keep the Indiansfrom dying out was to teach them theEuropean American version of agriculturalism.Eventually, if possible, Oregon Indians would be assimilated into the dominant culture. Mostagents held out little hope for the adults of the tribes. This thesis lays out the background for thedevelopment of United States Indian policies. European Americans' etimocentricideas about what constituted civilization became inextricablywoven into those policies. Those policies were brought in their infant stage to Oregon.

  • Elliott Roosevelt: a Paradoxical Personality in an Age of Extremes Theodore M
    Elliott Roosevelt: A Paradoxical Personality in an Age of Extremes Theodore M. Billett Elliott Roosevelt, the enigmatic younger brother of U.S. President Theodore Roosevelt, is a compelling study in contradiction. Though several of Elliott’s closest family members—from his brother to his daughter, Eleanor—became important figures on the national stage in twentieth century America, he has largely been forgotten. The reasons historians overlook Elliott, including his obscurity and the calamitousness of his lifetime, are not unlike the motives that drove his family to similar reticence. Yet, a deeper and more nuanced treatment of Elliott reveals much about late nineteenth century America and about a complicated personality with intrinsic connections to important historical actors. Like the Civil War of his childhood and the Gilded Age in which he lived, Elliott’s life presents a complicated, often paradoxical existence. Born to a family dissevered by the Civil War, raised in aristocratic society but financially inept, devoted to social welfare causes but engaged in a life of frivolity and ostentation, praised for his likeability but disdained for his selfishness, raised on notions of temperance and morality but remembered for his intractable drinking and debauchery, Elliott resists simplistic, unifying definitions. Unable to tease apart the bifurcated nature of Elliott’s life, a more effective picture of his character can be presented by wading into the mire of his contrasts. Significant representations of Elliott’s duplicitous reality and his conflicting conduct can be seen throughout his life. His household and family were wrenched by the Civil War. He was committed to helping the unfortunate and needy, but lived the life of Gilded Age boulevardier.

  • Chapter Twenty-Five “This Damned Old House” the Lincoln Family In
    Chapter Twenty-five “This Damned Old House” The Lincoln Family in the Executive Mansion During the Civil War, the atmosphere in the White House was usually sober, for as John Hay recalled, it “was an epoch, if not of gloom, at least of a seriousness too intense to leave room for much mirth.”1 The death of Lincoln’s favorite son and the misbehavior of the First Lady significantly intensified that mood. THE WHITE HOUSE The White House failed to impress Lincoln’s other secretaries, who disparaged its “threadbare appearance” and referred to it as “a dirty rickety concern.”2 A British journalist thought it beautiful in the moonlight, “when its snowy walls stand out in contrast to the night, deep blue skies, but not otherwise.”3 The Rev. Dr. Theodore L. Cuyler asserted that the “shockingly careless appearance of the White House proved that whatever may have been Mrs. Lincoln’s other good qualities, she hadn’t earned the compliment which the Yankee farmer paid to his wife when he said: ‘Ef my wife haint got an ear fer music, she’s got an eye for dirt.’”4 The north side of the Executive 1 John Hay, “Life in the White House in the Time of Lincoln,” in Michael Burlingame, ed., At Lincoln’s Side: John Hay’s Civil War Correspondence and Selected Writings (Carbondale: Southern Illinois University Press, 2000), 134. 2 William O.
