Buss Doctor of Philosophy Department of Theater Arts March 2012 Title: Cowboy Up: Evolution of the Frontier Hero in American Theater, 1872 – 1903 On the border between Beadle & Adam’s dime novel and Edwin Porter’s ground- breaking film, The Great Train Robbery, this dissertation returns to a period in American theater history when the legendary cowboy came to life. On the stage of late nineteenth century frontier melodrama, three actors blazed a trail for the cowboy to pass from man to myth. Frank Mayo’s Davy Crockett, William Cody’s Buffalo Bill, and James Wallick’s Jesse James represent a theatrical bloodline in the genealogy of frontier heroes.

LaRoque's "A Bright and Promising Future for Adolescent Literature"), particular types of this literature (e.g., Nicholas J. Karolides' "Focus on Black Adolescents"), and particular books, (e.g., Beverly Haley's "'The Pigman'- -Use It1"). Also included is an extensive list of current books and articles on adolescent literature, adolescents' reading interests, and how these books relate to the teaching of English..The bibliography is divided into (1) general bibliographies,(2) histories and criticism of adolescent literature, CO dime novels, (4) adolescent literature before 1940, (5) reading interest studies, (6) modern adolescent literature, (7) adolescent books in the schools, and (8) comments about young people's reading.

  • The Crescent City 4 26 17.Pdf
    NEW ORLEANS NOSTALGIA Remembering New Orleans History, Culture and Tradit ions By Ned Hémard The Crescent City A young, adventurous Yankee departed November 1, 1834, from his hometown harbor of Portland, Maine, aboard the merchantman Plato. His journey down to New Orleans, and subsequent trip upriver to Natchez, became the basis for a travel journal published in 1835, entitled The South-west by a Yankee, and firmly established an enduring popular name for the city of New Orleans: “The Crescent City”. The itinerant author’s name was Joseph Holt Ingraham (January 26, 1809 – December 18, 1860), only twenty-five years of age when he left New England for the South. Joseph Holt Ingraham Twentieth century readers were re-introduced to the travels of Joseph Holt Ingraham in 1971 with the book New Orleans Is My Name by James Register, printed by Mid-South Press of Shreveport. The Baton Rouge State-Times reported in an article dated November 4, 1971: “The expression of New Orleans as ‘the crescent city’ used as it appears from time immemorial with no thought of its author, comes to light in Register’s book,” a thoughtful condensation of Ingraham’s guidebook. With “vivid word-pictures” Ingraham described the “Creole French, market scenes, French cafes and Creole belles, a gaming house, a Spanish beauty, theaters, bachelors and their haunts,” to name just a few categories in his travelogue. Map of New Orleans, 1834, the same year Madame Delphine LaLaurie’s house was sacked by a mob of outraged citizens. The slave-torturing Creole socialite escaped to France with her family.

    ’ Series editor: John C. Seitz, Associate Professor, Theology Department, Fordham University; Associate Director for Lincoln Center, Curran Center for American Catholic Studies This series aims to contribute to the growing eld of Catholic studies through the publication of books devoted to the historical and cultural study of Catholic practice in North America, from the colonial period to the present. As the term “practice” suggests, the series springs from a pressing need in the study of American Catholicism for empirical investigations and creative explorations and analyses of the contours of Catholic experience. In seeking to provide more comprehensive maps of Catholic practice, this series is committed to publishing works from diverse American locales, including urban, suburban, and rural settings; ethnic, postethnic, and transnational contexts; private and public sites; and seats of power as well as the margins.

    NAVIGATING NINETEENTH CENTURY NOVELS: LINKING HISTORICAL AND LITERARY PERSPECTIVES TO EXPLORE THE INFLUENCE OF DIME NOVELS IN NINETEENTH CENTURY AMERICA. by Helen C. Nelson A Thesis/Project Presented to The Faculty of Humboldt State University In Partial Fulfillment of the Requirements for the Degree Master of Social Science Emphasis in American History May, 2005 NAVIGATING NINETEENTH CENTURY NOVELS: LINKING HISTORICAL AND LITERARY PERSPECTIVES TO EXPLORE THE INFLUENCE OF DIME NOVELS IN NINETEENTH CENTURY AMERICA by Helen C. Nelson Approved by the Master’s Thesis Committee: Delores McBroome, Major Professor Date Gayle Olson-Raymer, Committee Member Date Rodney Sievers, Committee Member Date Delores McBroome, Graduate Coordinator Date MASS—Teaching American History Cohort Donna E. Schafer, Dean for Research and Graduate Studies Date ABSTRACT NAVIGATING NINETEENTH CENTURY NOVELS: LINKING HISTORICAL AND LITERARY PERSPECTIVES TO EXPLORE THE INFLUENCE OF DIME NOVELS IN NINETEENTH CENTURY AMERICA. To set the context, this study will compare what has been written about three layers of literary output in nineteenth century America, and examine what can be learned about the class, race, gender, and culture of the intended readers. The three layers are identified by David Reynolds in Beneath the American Renaissance. Firstly, there was "classic" literature of the American Renaissance writers, secondly, a "genteel sentimental-domestic genre," and thirdly, the "sensational literature" that grew with the rise of the penny press. In order to set the scene, this study examines briefly the rise of the American novel, looks at some contemporary reviews, and as Cathy Davidson suggests in Revolution and the Word does a "careful appraisal of those moments in which literature is written." It also examines the different sectors of society at the time - the interpretive communities, in other words, the reading audience.
