  • Stamps and Postcards – Science Or Play?
    Copyright © Museum Tusculanums Press Stamps and Postcards – Science or Play? A Longitudinal Study of a Gendered Collecting Field Bjarne Rogan Rogan, Bjarne 2001: Stamps and Postcards – Science or Play? A Longitudinal Study of a Gendered Collecting Field. – Ethnologia Europaea 31: 37–54. The point of departure is a case study of a French collecting couple, with a focus on their very different ways of collecting stamps. I shall then go back to mid 19th century and follow the different modes of collecting postal history up to our time. These collecting modes depend on societal norms for gender patterns as well as on dominant scientific paradigms. The aim is twofold; I want to point out the impact of scientific thought on everyday life, even on leisure activities like collecting, and I want to trace some lines of development in the history of gender and material culture. Much literature on collecting has been published during the last decade, but next to nothing on its most widespread branch, that of stamps and postal history, a hobby with hundreds of millions of adherents in the 1990s and an annual economic turnover of around ten billion US dollars. Collecting habits reflect ideologies of order and discipline, of knowledge and methodology, and of gender. A longitudinal study of the history of postal history collecting may shed some light on these issues.1 Prof. Dr. Bjarne Rogan, University of Oslo/La Maison des Sciences de l’Homme, Paris. 54, Boulevard Raspail, F-75260 Paris Cedex 6, France.

    NAVIGATING IDENTITIES: WOMEN’S TRAVEL NARRATIVES IN THE NINETEENTH CENTURY by Heather Lynn Sprong Bachelor of Arts, Washington and Jefferson College, 2001 Master of Arts, University of Pittsburgh, 2006 Submitted to the Graduate Faculty of the University of Pittsburgh in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy University of Pittsburgh 2013 UNIVERSITY OF PITTSBURGH DIETRICH SCHOOL OF ARTS AND SCIENCES This dissertation was presented by Heather Lynn Sprong It was defended on July 23, 2013 and approved by Neepa Majumdar, PhD, Associate Professor of English and Film Studies Philip Smith, PhD, Associate Professor of Literature Joshua Ellenbogen, PhD, Associate Professor of Art History Dissertation Director: Troy Boone, PhD, Associate Professor of Literature ii Copyright © by Heather Lynn Sprong 2013 iii NAVIGATING IDENTITIES: WOMEN’S TRAVEL NARRATIVES IN THE NINETEENTH CENTURY Heather Lynn Sprong, PhD University of Pittsburgh, 2013 This dissertation argues that diurnal travel narratives written and published in the nineteenth century participated in the discourse of imperialism by articulating empire’s influence in terms that readers outside of the realm of politics could understand: impact on daily life. Working primarily with texts written by women such as Emily Eden, Fanny Eden, and Emily Innes who traveled with governing members of the British colonial ruling class, this dissertation asserts that the minutiae included in their narratives—everything from the food writers ate and the people they met to worries about their inkstands and which furniture their pets favored—expose, but also act upon, the discourse of imperialism. Writing functions both as a product and as an activity in these journals, and I contend that its double role constitutes the crux of their power as agents of imperial discourse.

  • Panama Canal Bibliography – American Period 1904-1999
    Panama Canal Bibliography – American Period 1904-1999 Elizabeth H. Bemis, Ph.D. March 2019 The goal of this bibliography is to work towards a comprehensive list of books published on the American period of the Panama Canal, 1904-1999. It is impossible to completely isolate the American period from the history and impact of what came before and its influence on what has come after, so some key sources that focus on other peripheral topics are also included to provide a more comprehensive picture of the material available to scholars and the interested reader. The most prominent of these closely related subjects are the Panama Canal Railroad, U.S. interest in a canal before 1904, the French canal, political situations surrounding the canal, and important figures in the Canal’s history. The core of the bibliography was built from the Panama Canal Museum Collection of the University of Florida Libraries which has afforded the inclusion of many rare and unique items. A list of critical archival and library holdings and serial publications that don’t technically fall under the parameters set above, but are important resources, are included after the end of the formal bibliography. A small list of websites that provide teaching resources can also be found after the formal bibliography. Some book chapters are included, but only those encountered during the process of looking through other sources for books; they were not sought out. The same applies to published government documents. This bibliography does not include any journal articles. 10 Year Report, the Panama Canal Commission: FY 1980 to FY 1989: A Decade of Progress in Canal Operations and Treaty Implementation.

  • Postcard Collector Magazine
    http://tt.fwpublications.com/Portals/40/Postcard%20indexFinal2.doc INDEX POSTCARD COLLECTOR MAGAZINE November 1983 through November/December 2006 issues 1991 through 1999 Annuals Prepared by Susan Steinnerd April 2007 This is a revised and expanded index to Postcard Collector magazine for all issues from November 1983 through December 2006, and the Postcard Collector Annuals 1991 through 1999. (Notes: Postcard Collector was published monthly until the fall of 2006 when the publisher went to a bi-monthly format. There was no 1995 Annual.) The index will serve as a valuable resource for researching information relating to postcards and the hobby in general. An index entry is by month and year, i.e., 8-98 refers to August 1998 issue for the magazine and the year plus an A, i.e., 96A refers to the 5th edition, 1996 Annual. Five sections comprise the index: Artist/Photographer, Topical, Printer/Publisher/Distributor, Series & Sets, and View. In the first section of the index, artists and photographers have been grouped together with (Photo.), if applicable, after the name. The next section Topical captures subject matter represented on postcards. A significant number of headings have been included for grouping similar cards, such as Expositions & Fairs, Holiday, and Postcard Collecting. Because the printer/publisher/distributor may be one of the same, these have been combined in the third section. Series & sets categorize cards that can be grouped together by similarity and subsequently serves as a helpful checklist. The last section View is by geographical location. Auction recaps, authors, book reviews, exhibit announcements, internet sites, obituaries, postcard club info and their published cards, Postcard Collector reader survey, and postcard shows were not included in this index.
