    Nineteenth Ce ntury The Magazine of the Victorian Society in America Volume 40 Number 1 Editorial The Artist’s Shadow The Winter Show at the Park Avenue Armory in New York City is always a feast for the eyes. Dazzling works of art, decorative arts, and sculpture appear that we might never see again. During a tour of this pop-up museum in January I paused at the booth of the Alexander Gallery where a painting caught my eye. It was an 1812 portrait of two endearing native-New Yorkers Schuyler Ogden and his sister, the grand-nephew and grand-niece of General Stephen Van Rensselaer. I am always sure that exhibitors at such shows can distinguish the buyers from the voyeurs in a few seconds but that did not prevent the gallery owner from engaging with me in a lively conversation about Fresh Raspberries . It was clear he had considerable affection for the piece. Were I a buyer, I would have very happily bought this little confection then and there. The boy, with his plate of fresh picked berries, reminds me of myself at that very age. These are not something purchased at a market. These are berries he and his sister have freshly picked just as they were when my sisters and I used to bring bowls of raspberries back to our grandmother from her berry patch, which she would then make into jam. I have no doubt Master Ogden and his beribboned sister are on their way to present their harvest to welcoming hands. As I walked away, I turned one last time to bid them adieu and that is when I saw its painter, George Harvey.

Published October 2018 For Ward W. Briggs, Jr., Henry Louis Gates, Jr., Meyer Reinhold and Cornel West, my friends and teachers. Introduction Many of us remain unaware that among the members of the American Philological Association (Society for Classical Studies since 2014) during the latter half of the nine- teenth century were people of African and African American descent, for little or noth- ing had been written about them before the American Philological Association published my pamphlet, The First Three African American Members of the American Philological Association in 2001. We have, however, understood for some time that Americans from the late eighteenth century through the nineteenth century were engaged in heated argu- ments about the appropriate type of education needed by Americans in general, and particularly over the needs of the newly-freed slaves after the Civil War. What we had not yet realized was that these were also concerns among members of the black diasporic community itself, which understood that the study of ancient Greek and Latin had long been the intellectual standard

  • The Mystery of the Alabama Confederate Monument
    Devotion, Deception, and the Ladies Memorial Association, 1865-1898: The Mystery of the Alabama Confederate Monument michael panhorst he eighty-eight-foot tall Alabama Confederate Monument T(Figure 1) on Montgomery’s Capitol Hill stands in commemora- tion of the service and sacrifice of 122,000 Alabamians who fought for the Confederacy during the Civil War. Fund-raising for the $47,000 monument began in 1865 and was largely the work of white women, as was typical of Civil War memorial patronage in the South. The Ladies Memorial Association (LMA) raised most of the money through lengthy efforts involving bazaars and appeals to private do- nors and the state government. Due to pressing post-war needs for proper burial of many Confederate bodies lying in shallow battlefield graves, and the needs of widows, orphans, and Confederate veterans during Reconstruction, plus an economy slow to recover from the war, the cornerstone was not laid until 1886. More than 5,000 people witnessed Jefferson Davis perform that ceremony with full Masonic rites near the spot where he had taken the oath of office as the only President of the Confederacy. Another twelve years passed before the monument designed by New York sculptor Alexander Doyle (1857-1922) was completed with his handsome bronze finial figure of Patriotism and bronze relief sculpture of a generic battle scene en- circling the column. Granite statuary by Frederick Barnicoat (1857- 1942) of Quincy, Massachusetts, representing the Infantry, Artillery, Cavalry, and Navy was added by the patrons to complete Doyle’s design. The elaborate dedication on December 7, 1898 (near the michael panhorst is Curator of Art at the Montgomery Museum of Fine Arts.

  • Cornelia: on Making One's Name As Mater Gracchorum
    “Cornelia: on making one’s name as mater Gracchorum” 1 “Cornelia: on making one’s name as mater Gracchorum” June 2012 Version Matthew B. Roller Johns Hopkins University © Matthew B. Roller, [email protected] Not for citation without author’s permission “Cornelia: on making one’s name as mater Gracchorum” 2 Cornelia: on making one’s name as mater Gracchorum I. Introduction In his Tiberius and Gaius Gracchus, Plutarch discusses the motivations that may have spurred Tiberius Gracchus to propose his agrarian law immediately upon entering office as Tribune of the Plebs in 133 BCE. Tiberius may have been incited by Diophanes the rhetorician and Blossius the philosopher, who were his friends and teachers (§8.6); or by rivalry with another ambitious aristocrat called Spurius Postumius (§8.8); or by his own observation of the condition of the Tuscan countryside (§8.9); or by the direct urging of the people themselves (§8.10). Plutarch also reports (§8.7) that some writers say that his mother Cornelia spurred him on, by constantly reproaching her sons that the Romans still addressed her as the mother-in-law of Scipio (Aemilianus), and not yet as the mother of the Gracchi.1 In a perceptive discussion of this passage, Burckhardt and Von Ungern- Sternberg observe that it is premature for Tiberius’s mother to demand great things of her elder son. Any contemporary aristocrat would have lodged hopes for making a great name not in the lowly tribunate, but in the higher magistracies, above all the consulship with its accompanying military commands.2 Tiberius, about 30 years old in 133, was at 1 Plut.
