  • Autobiographical Concerns in Norman Mailer`S the Armies of the Night Kader YILMAZ*
    Hacettepe Üniversitesi Edebiyat Fakültesi Dergisi 2005 / Cilt: 22 Sayõ: 1 / ss. 249-258 Norman Mailer’s March: Autobiographical Concerns in Norman Mailer`s The Armies of The Night Kader YILMAZ* Abstract: As a work of literary nonfiction, Norman Mailer’s The Armies of The Night has often been studied in the context of its fictional reconstruction of the anti-war demonstration of 1967. Although some literary critics have also acknowledged the author’s highly subjective depiction of the march, this aspect of The Armies of The Night has received comparatively little critical consideration. Yet, the autobiographical narrative of this book deserves particular attention because it performs an important function in that it enables its author to personalize the march and to analyze the event from the perspective of a witness. This paper argues that Mailer aims to interpret and speculate on the significance of the march by offering his personal experiences and reactions to the events as emblematic of the experiences of the larger society protesting the Vietnam War. Key words: Literary nonfiction, Norman Mailer, autobiographical narrative, 1960s Özet: Olgu yönelimli roman türü olarak, Norman Mailer’in The Armies of The Night genellikle, 1967 yõlõnda düzenlenen savaş karşõtõ gösteriyi kurgusal bir yapõ ile yeniden anlatmasõ bağlamõnda incelenmiştir. Eleştirmenler, bu protesto yürüyüşünün kurgulanõşõndaki öznel yaklaşõma dikkat çekmiş olsalar da, eserin bu yönünü irdeleyen çalõşmalar azdõr. Oysa, bu eserdeki özyaşamsal söylem yazarõn gösteriyi öznelleştirmesine ve olayõ bir tanõk gözüyle yorumlamasõna olanak sağlamasõ açõsõndan önem taşõmaktadõr. Bu makale Mailer’in, kişisel deneyimlerinin ve olaylara tepkisinin Vietnam savaşõnõ protesto eden toplumun deneyimlerinin bir yansõmasõ olduğunu ve bu yolla toplumsal bir olayõ aydõnlatmayõ ve yorumlamayõ hedeflediğini savunmaktadõr.

It was one of the first sites for contemporary art showings in the city. She operated it as a "semi-cooperative center" (her words) in which 25 of the finest and most vital painters, sculptors, and photographers of New Mexico could exhibit their work at the same time. By her own admission it was a "pioneering venture." Those who agreed to make monthly payments of LHR's established "fee" schedule were called "Participating Artists." The Gallery remained open for some two and one-half years.

Michael Lennon I went to Wharton with Donald Trump. We were both from praetorian families in Queens – his more martial than mine – in the first line of defense on the crabgrass frontier. We went out one night together to a hotel behind Rittenhouse Square. His date was a wised-up girl from Phila- delphia society who dreamed of becoming a stripper; mine was a retreating waitress, with a hyena body that gave off a whiff of the inquisi- tive. After the drinks – Don drank seltzer – we took them to a room we’d booked upstairs. My date gashed my face with her high-heel after I tried to shuffle her into one of the bedrooms. There was panting from Don’s quarters, the sound of a teetering vase, then mechanical chanting, until a final flesh-on-flesh “Whaa- aap!” A volley of sweet-talk followed. “If you want to be a dancer, there’s nobody who’s going New York City, 1968 to stop you, not even your father,” Don whis- pered. “I know some of the best dancers in this in a Trump Air commercial, which left him of Walt Whitman and Leon Trotsky, your the haste to give pleasure.

  • ANTA Theater and the Proposed Designation of the Related Landmark Site (Item No
    Landmarks Preservation Commission August 6, 1985; Designation List 182 l.P-1309 ANTA THFATER (originally Guild Theater, noN Virginia Theater), 243-259 West 52nd Street, Manhattan. Built 1924-25; architects, Crane & Franzheim. Landmark Site: Borough of Manhattan Tax Map Block 1024, Lot 7. On June 14 and 15, 1982, the Landmarks Preservation Commission held a public hearing on the proposed designation as a Landmark of the ANTA Theater and the proposed designation of the related Landmark Site (Item No. 5). The hearing was continued to October 19, 1982. Both hearings had been duly advertised in accordance with the provisions of law. Eighty-three witnesses spoke in favor of designation. Two witnesses spoke in opposition to designation. The owner, with his representatives, appeared at the hearing, and indicated that he had not formulated an opinion regarding designation. The Commission has received many letters and other expressions of support in favor of this designation. DESCRIPTION AND ANALYSIS The ANTA Theater survives today as one of the historic theaters that symbolize American theater for both New York and the nation. Built in the 1924-25, the ANTA was constructed for the Theater Guild as a subscription playhouse, named the Guild Theater. The fourrling Guild members, including actors, playwrights, designers, attorneys and bankers, formed the Theater Guild to present high quality plays which they believed would be artistically superior to the current offerings of the commercial Broadway houses. More than just an auditorium, however, the Guild Theater was designed to be a theater resource center, with classrooms, studios, and a library. The theater also included the rrost up-to-date staging technology.

  • Project Apollo: Americans to the Moon John M
    Chapter Two Project Apollo: Americans to the Moon John M. Logsdon Project Apollo, the remarkable U.S. space effort that sent 12 astronauts to the surface of Earth’s Moon between July 1969 and December 1972, has been extensively chronicled and analyzed.1 This essay will not attempt to add to this extensive body of literature. Its ambition is much more modest: to provide a coherent narrative within which to place the various documents included in this compendium. In this narrative, key decisions along the path to the Moon will be given particular attention. 1. Roger Launius, in his essay “Interpreting the Moon Landings: Project Apollo and the Historians,” History and Technology, Vol. 22, No. 3 (September 2006): 225–55, has provided a com­ prehensive and thoughtful overview of many of the books written about Apollo. The bibliography accompanying this essay includes almost every book-length study of Apollo and also lists a number of articles and essays interpreting the feat. Among the books Launius singles out for particular attention are: John M. Logsdon, The Decision to Go to the Moon: Project Apollo and the National Interest (Cambridge: MIT Press, 1970); Walter A. McDougall, . the Heavens and the Earth: A Political History of the Space Age (New York: Basic Books, 1985); Vernon Van Dyke, Pride and Power: the Rationale of the Space Program (Urbana, IL: University of Illinois Press, 1964); W.
