  • The Star-Spangled Banner from Wikipedia, the Free Encyclopedia "The Star-Spangled Banner " Is the National Anthem of the United States of America
    The Star-Spangled Banner From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia "The Star-Spangled Banner " is the national anthem of the United States of America. The lyrics come from "Defence of Fort McHenry", a poem written in 1814 by the 35-year-old lawyer and amateur poet, Francis Scott Key, after witnessing the bombardment of Fort McHenry by the British Royal Navy ships in Chesapeake Bay during the Battle of Fort McHenry in the War of 1812. The poem was set to the tune of a popular British drinking song, written by John Stafford Smith for the Anacreontic Society, a men's social club in London. "The Anacreontic Song" (or "To Anacreon in Heaven"), with various lyrics, was already popular in the United States. Set to Key's poem and renamed "The Star-Spangled Banner", it would soon become a well-known American patriotic song. With a range of one and a half octaves, it is known for being difficult to sing. Although the song has four stanzas, only the first is commonly sung today, with the fourth ("O! thus be it ever when free men shall stand...") added on more formal occasions. The fourth stanza includes the line "And this be our motto: In God is our Trust.". The United States adopted "In God We Trust" as its national motto in 1956. "The Star-Spangled Banner" was recognized for official use by the Navy in 1889 and the President in 1916, and was made the national anthem by a congressional resolution on March 3, 1931 (46 Stat. 1508, codified at 36 U.S.C.

Matteson; for The Pathfinder, a depiction by F. O. C.

  • An Exploration of Environmental Issues Anjali
    P: ISSN No. 0976-8602 RNI No. UPENG/2012/42622 VOL.-III, ISSUE-III, JULY-2014 E: ISSN No. 2349-9443 Asian Resonance Arcadian Wilderness in James Fenimore Cooper - An Exploration of Environmental Issues Abstract The paper examines the idea of Arcadian wilderness in the Leather stocking tales of James Fenimore Cooper in the light of eco- criticism. What exactly is eco-criticism? How can we define it? Eco- criticism is a study of literature that focuses on the relationship between humans and their natural world. It believes that humanity‘s disconnection from the natural world is the reason for the environmental crisis today. Eco-criticism believes that nature, non-human beings have been side- lined because of our anthropocentric biases, which tends to exploit the non-human as a resource for our personal gains and comforts. Eco- criticism also values bio-ethics above cultural ethics. It values tribal, aboriginal values as these people lived close to the soil. The American Indian despite all his violence was steeped in his environment in a way modern man never can be. As Cheryll Glotfelty has said in1994 that eco- criticism has one foot in literature and one in land (Glotfelty).Therefore, th Cooper, this 19 century novelist, said to be the father of American fiction, will be evaluated in the context of the current day environmental concerns. Keywords: Eco-criticism, Environment, Nature, non-human, animals, red Indians, wilderness Anjali Raman Introduction Assistant Professor Eco-criticism primarily examines the nature of our interaction with our Shivaji College, environment and its non-human inhabitants.

Banner Moments: The National Anthem in American Life Unlike the Declaration of Independence, the U.S. Constitution, or even the American Flag, Francis Scott Key’s song “The Star-Spangled Banner” lacks a singular icon that defines it. Rather the song must be brought to life through performance. Individuals sing the anthem into a fleeting materiality, simultaneously constructing themselves as a community while inscribing the song ever more deeply into cultural memory. The artifacts in this exhibit capture material iterations of the song and thus record the crystallization of an American national consciousness.

  • "Indian" Novels of Jose De Alencar
    7 Nationality and the "Indian" Novels of Jose de Alencar Cooper's Leather-stocking series was read most attentively and fruitfully not in Europe but in other parts of the Americas, where a collection of Spanish colonies and the single Portuguese one were pupating into nations and, like the United States, creating national lit­ eratures. They too, looking for autochthonous subjects, found the opu­ lent scenery and the original inhabitants sanctioned by the European discourse of the exotic and began to fashion from them a way of repre­ senting a non-European identity. Cooper showed that it could be done and was admired for it.1 His works were aligned with European exam­ ples of how to use exotic materials and seen as patterns for adapting a discourse of the exotic to the production of an American literature of nationality. The Cooper with whom other American literatures of nationality es­ tablished an intertextual relationship was strictly the creator of the Leather-stocking. Neither his sea novels nor those in which he conducts an acerbic argument with his contemporaries were taken as models. Certainly the choice in Notions of the Americansto assert national identity by opposing exoticism, its assumption that the power relation on which 1 According to Doris Sommer Cooper's "Latin-American heirs . reread and rewrote him" (Foundational Fictions, p. 52).
