Es un tema de actualidad ya que la ciudad se prepara para celebrar el cuarto centenario de aquella fecha. Como amante de León y de su historia he de decirles que desde hace años estamos preparan- do este acontecimiento. Todos los año, ya ocho, hemos organizado una Peregrinación en la Fe, con jóvenes de movimientos parroquiales que el sábado más próximo a la fecha del traslado, 16 de ene- ro, emprendían un largo camino desde las ruinas al León actual. Participaban unos ciento ochenta jóvenes, que en dos jornadas, hacían los 33 kilómetros que separan el asentamiento inicial del actual León. Este año 2010 queremos poner en pie de caminantes peregrinos unos quinientos jóvenes; es- peramos que muchas delegaciones de las parroquias esperen estos jóvenes a la entrada de León y vivir un pasado lleno de fe y patriotismo. Esta es la parte de la Iglesia en la conmemoración históri- ca. La política tendrá otros actos, más vistosos, con más derroche pero más significativos Todo por León, los leoneses y su historia. Hno.

La tradición en Nicaragua comenzó, pienso yo, con la familia Matamoros ya que los padres y tres de sus hijos fundaron escue- las de comercio. La de Silviano Matamoros era la más famosa, seguida por la de su hermana Julieta Matamoros de Dezzi. Hablo de las que yo conocí porque la escuela de comercio de sus padres, no la conocí. Muchos aprendimos esas reglas de tipografía aunque nunca fuimos a escuelas de comercio. Me refiero a la doble interlinea para separar párrafos, al doble espacio después de un punto y segui- do, y a la justificación derecha del escrito entre otros que era el modelo de “bloque” de los escritos, estéticamente perfecto, se decía. Además, heredamos de la escritura cursiva y de la máquina de es- cribir el subrayar palabras. En un manuscrito el único recurso que tenemos para enfatizar una palabra es subrayarla. No cabe ni siquiera escribir en mayúsculas sostenidas, que fue un recurso adicional que nos permitió la máquina de escribir porque las mayúsculas sostenidas

  • Making “Chinese Art”: Knowledge and Authority in the Transpacific Progressive Era
    Making “Chinese Art”: Knowledge and Authority in the Transpacific Progressive Era Kin-Yee Ian Shin Submitted in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy in the Graduate School of Arts and Sciences COLUMBIA UNIVERSITY 2016 © 2016 Kin-Yee Ian Shin All rights reserved ABSTRACT -- Making “Chinese Art”: Knowledge and Authority in the Transpacific Progressive Era Kin-Yee Ian Shin This dissertation presents a cultural history of U.S.-China relations between 1876 and 1930 that analyzes the politics attending the formation of the category we call “Chinese art” in the United States today. Interest in the material and visual culture of China has influenced the development of American national identity and shaped perceptions of America’s place in the world since the colonial era. Turn-of-the-century anxieties about U.S.-China relations and geopolitics in the Pacific Ocean sparked new approaches to the collecting and study of Chinese art in the U.S. Proponents including Charles Freer, Langdon Warner, Frederick McCormick, and others championed the production of knowledge about Chinese art in the U.S. as a deterrent for a looming “civilizational clash.” Central to this flurry of activity were questions of epistemology and authority: among these approaches, whose conceptions and interpretations would prevail, and on what grounds? American collectors, dealers, and curators grappled with these questions by engaging not only with each other—oftentimes contentiously—but also with their counterparts in Europe, China, and Japan. Together they developed and debated transnational forms of expertise within museums, world’s fairs, commercial galleries, print publications, and educational institutes.

  • History of the North Andover Garden Club by Kate Hastings Stevens A
    History of the North Andover Garden Club By Kate Hastings Stevens A History of the North Andover Garden Club1 would not be complete without a description of the background from which it developed. The first gardens of old Andover were dooryards enclosed by picket or rail fences. Their small area was filled with syringe and rose bushes and sweet-smelling flowers such as lavender and peonies. Usually there were two shade trees, one on either side of the gate. Of such a garden one catches a glimpse in Miss Bailey’s history of Andover 2, where a photograph of the Phillips Manse (building 1752), taken before the dooryard fence was torn down and the piazza added, is reproduced. The remodeling of the house was done after the deaths of Miss Caroline and Miss Susan Phillips 3 in 1883. In 1884 Bishop Brooks became is owner, and H. H. Richardson, architect of Trinity church in Boston, drew plans for the alterations which brought the house more nearly in keeping with current living demands. When larger houses were built some distance back from the street, the dooryards expanded. There was a gate at the street which led to a pathway bordered with flowers by which one approached the front door. Such an entrance with its flower-bordered pathway may still be seen at the Kittredge house, built in 1784. I remember the path which led to the front door of the Parson Loring house, built in 1840. There was a fence in front of the house with a gate, smaller and without the urns of the Kittredge fence, but on the same lines.
