  • Coloring Their World: Americans and Decorative Color in the Nineteenth Century
    Coloring Their World: Americans and Decorative Color in the Nineteenth Century A dissertation submitted to the Graduate School of the University of Cincinnati in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy in the Department of History of the College of Arts and Sciences by Kelly F. Wright B.A. College of William and Mary 1985 M.A. University of Cincinnati 2001 Committee Chair: Wayne K. Durrill, Ph.D. i ABSTRACT Certain events in recent history have called into question some long-held assumptions about the colors of our material history. The controversy over the cleaning of the Sistine Chapel posited questions about color to an international audience, and in the United States the restoration of original decorative colors at the homes of many historically significant figures and religious groups has elicited a visceral reaction suggesting the new colors challenge Americans’ entrenched notions of what constituted respectable taste, if not comportment, in their forebears. Recent studies have even demonstrated that something as seemingly objective as photography has greatly misled us about the appearance of our past. We tend to see the nineteenth century as a faded, sepia-toned monochrome. But nothing could be further from the truth. Coloring Their World: Americans and Decorative Color in the Nineteenth Century, argues that in that century we can witness one of the only true democratizations in American history—the diffusion of color throughout every level of society. In the eighteenth century American aristocrats brandished color like a weapon, carefully crafting the material world around them as a critical part of their political and social identities, cognizant of the power afforded them by color’s correct use, and the consequences of failure.

II )2 < 7-'/ < INTRODUCTION. ^/^Sn i Chronology, so in Genealogy there are certain landmarks. Thus,n i France, to trace back to Charlemagne is the desideratum ; in England, to the Norman Con quest; and in the New England States, to the Puri tans, or first settlement of the country. The origin of but few nations or individuals can be precisely traced or ascertained. " The lapse of ages is inces santly thickening the veil which is spread over remote objects and events. The light becomes fainter as we proceed, the objects more obscure and uncertain, until Time at length spreads her sable mantle over them, and we behold them no more." Its i stated, among the librarians and officers of historical institutions in the Eastern States, that not two per cent of the inquirers succeed in establishing the connection between their ancestors here and the family abroad. Most of the emigrants 2 I NTROD UCTION. fled f rom religious persecution, and, instead of pro mulgating their derivation or history, rather sup pressed all knowledge of it, so that their descendants had no direct traditions. On this account it be comes almost necessary to give the descendants separately of each of the original emigrants to this country, with a general account of the family abroad, as far as it can be learned from history, without trusting too much to tradition, which however is often the only source of information on these matters.

  • Community Preservation Plan UPDATE Town of Red Hook Villages of Red Hook & Tivoli
    Community Preservation Plan UPDATE Town of Red Hook Villages of Red Hook & Tivoli Red Hook Town Board | Red Hook, NY Adopted June 9, 2016 Acknowledgements This 2016 Community Preservation Plan Update was prepared by the Town Board of the Town of Red Hook, based upon the advice and recommendations of the Red Hook Community Preservation Fund Advisory Board. The Advisory Board included a cross section of community leaders from the Town and its two Villages, Red Hook and Tivoli. The Plan is based upon the original 2011 planning process that led to creation of the first Community Preservation Plan and Community Preservation Fund. The Fund was authorized by New York State Law and revenues collected and deposited into the Fund may only be expended based upon the Plan. The State Law that authorized the Fund requires that the Plan be updated not less than once each five years. The Advisory Board received assistance from Robert Wills, Senior GIS Project Coordinator for the Dutchess County Department of Planning and Development. Mr. Wills integrated data on thousands of parcels in the Town and skillfully created the Community Preservation Plan Update maps. Laura Heady, Conservation and Land Use Coordinator for the Hudson River Estuary Program of the NYS Department of Environmental Conservation and Cornell University. Susan Ezrati and Mary Ann Johnson, Advisory Board members, collated reams of data on Town parcels, potentially eligible for use of the Fund.

  • Boston's Arnold Arboretum: a Place for Study and Recreation
    National Park Service Teaching with Historic Places U.S. Department of the Interior Boston’s Arnold Arboretum: A Place for Study and Recreation Boston's Arnold Arboretum: A Place for Study and Recreation (Olmstead NHS) By the mid-to-late 19th century, the crushing density of increasingly crowded cities led to the view that parks and public gardens could serve as antidotes to the urban environment. Renowned landscape architect Frederick Law Olmsted believed that visiting oases of green space could help ease the pressures of urban life for both the poor and the rich. In response to Olmsted's Central Park in New York, the first large public space set aside for recreational use in an American city, cities such as Philadelphia and Boston began planning their own green spaces. In Boston, Olmsted designed a series of parks linked by parkways collectively known as the "Emerald Necklace." The Arnold Arboretum, one of the "jewels" of Boston's Emerald Necklace, has served as a tranquil haven since it opened to the public in the 1880s. There, seasons come alive in vibrant colors. In the spring, the delicate perfume of lilac, mock orange, and viburnum float on soft breezes. The pale green leaves of hickory, walnut, and hackberry trees offer verdant canopies. By mid-summer, the Arnold Arboretum is ablaze with color and heavy with ripening nuts and fruit. In the fall, rich autumn colors catch the sunlight. Even winter is beautiful in the arboretum. The trees and shrubs stand in stark contrast to gray skies and snow-covered slopes. National Park Service Teaching with Historic Places U.S.

The lesson focuses on the first arboretum in the United States, which was part of Olmstead's plan for Boston's park system, known as the "Emerald Necklace." The lesson can be used in teaching units on late 19th-century urban expansion, especially as influenced by immigration and the Industrial Revolution. It also can form the core of an interdisciplinary unit when used in conjunction with lessons on the Romantic and Transcendentalist movements and lessons on botany. The teacher's part of the lesson provides general information, gives educational objectives for students, discusses visiting the site, and lists supplementary resources.
