Washington, 1996 . 88 Bibliography and Indexes . 93 Selected Bibliography . 93 – 98 Indexes . 99 – 104 vii preface Picturing America is the newest initiative of the We the People program of the National Endowment for the Humanities. Launched in 2002, We the People seeks to strengthen the teaching, study, and under­ standing of America’s history and founding principles. To promote this goal, Picturing America brings some of our nation’s most significant images into classrooms nationwide. It offers a way to understand the history of America — its diverse people and places, its travails and triumphs — through some of our greatest artistic masterpieces. This excit­ ing new effort in humanities education will expose thousands of citizens to outstanding American art, and it will provide a valuable resource that can help bring the past alive. In so doing, Picturing America fits squarely within the mission of the NEH. The Endowment’s founding legislation declares that “democracy demands Chairman Bruce Cole at the National wisdom.” A nation that does not know where it comes from, why it Gallery of Art, Washington, D.C. —Photograph © DavidHills.net exists, or what it stands for, cannot be expected to long endure — so each generation of Americans must learn about our nation’s founding principles and its rich heritage. Studying the visual arts can help accomplish this. An appreciation of American art takes us beyond the essential facts of our history and gives us insights into our nation’s character, ideals, and aspirations. By using art to help our young people to see better, we can help them to understand better the continuing drama of the American experiment in self-government. My own experience testifies to art’s power to stimulate intellectual awakenings. When I was a young child my parents visited the National Gallery of Art in Washington, and they brought home a souvenir that would alter my life: a portfolio of illustrations from the collections of the National Gallery. As I pondered these great works of art, I had the first glimmerings of what would become a lifelong pursuit: to study and understand the form, history, and meaning of art. This was my gateway to a wider intellectual world. Through that open door, I would delve into history, philosophy, religion, architecture, and literature — the entire universe of the humanities. I hope that Picturing America will provide a similar intellectual gateway for students across America.This program will help today’s young Americans learn about our nation’s history. And that, in turn, will make them good citizens — citizens who are motivated by the stirring narrative of our past, and prepared to add their own chapters to America’s remarkable story. Bruce Cole Chairman National Endowment for the Humanities PREFACE ix acknowledgments Picturing America is presented by the National Endowment for the Humanities (NEH), in cooperation with the American Library Association. NEH also wishes to recognize the following organizations and individuals for their support of the program: • The Institute of Museum and Library Services • The Department of Health and Human Services, Office of Head Start • The National Park Service • The U.S. Department of State, Bureau of Educational & Cultural Affairs Picturing America has also been generously supported by Mr. and Mrs. Robert H. Smith. NEH appreciates the support and guidance this program received from the National Trust for the Humanities, the President’s Committee for the Arts and Humanities, and the State Humanities Councils. We are also grateful to the History Channel. The NEH also thanks the U.S. Department of Education and Crayola LLC for promoting Picturing America. xi introduction The stakes could not be higher as these men march forth to make a desperate attempt to take Fort Wagner, a Confederate strong­ hold at Charleston, South Carolina. They know the battle will be hard and that the odds are against them; but still, they lean into the advance, united in their resolve. The taut, athletic horse, sensing their mood, jerks back its head, whinnying and snorting against the rumble of feet, metal, and drums. The soldiers do not yet know what we know — how many will die, or that among those will be the steadfast colonel who rides at their side. They will fail to take the fort, but their unflinching heroism will open doors for others.

    UNIVERSITY OF CALIFORNIA, SAN DIEGO Capitalism and the Production of Realtime: Improvised Music in Post-unification Berlin A Thesis submitted in partial satisfaction of the requirements for the degree Master of Arts in Music by Philip Emmanuel Skaller Committee in Charge: Professor Jann Pasler, Chair Professor Anthony Burr Professor Anthony Davis 2009 The Thesis of Philip Emmanuel Skaller is approved and it is acceptable in quality and form for publication on microfilm and electronically: Chair University of California, San Diego 2009 iii DEDICATION I would like to thank my chair Jann Pasler for all her caring and knowledgeable feedback, for all the personal and emotional support that she has given me over the past year, and for being a constant source of positive inspiration and critical thinking! Jann, you are truly the best chair and mentor that a student could ever hope for. Thank you! I would also like to thank a sordid collection of cohorts in my program. Jeff Kaiser, who partook in countless discussions and gave me consistent insight into improvised music. Matt McGarvey, who told me what theoretical works I should read (or gave me many a contrite synopsis of books that I was thinking of reading). And Ben Power, who gave me readings and perspectives from the field of ethnomusicology and (tried) to make sure that I used my terminology clearly and consciously and also (tried) to help me avoid overstating or overgeneralizing my thesis. Lastly, I would like to dedicate this work to my partner Linda Williams, who quite literally convinced me not to abandon the project, and who's understanding of the contemporary zeitgeist, patient discussions, critical feedback, and related areas of research are what made this thesis ultimately realizable.

    DOCUMENT RESUME ED 062 259 SO 003 006 AUTHOR Nicolosi, Louis J.; And Others TITLE American History: The Multi-Concept Plan for High School. INSTITUTION Louisiana State Dept. of Education, Baton Rouge. REPORT NO Bull-1060 PUB DATE 71 NOTE 205p. EDRS PRICE MF-$0.65 HC-$9.87 DESCRIPTORS Activity Units; *American History; Civil War (United States); *Concept Teaching; constitutional History; Curriculum Guides; Democracy; *History Instruction; Modern History; Reconstruction Era; Secondary Grades; Sequential Learning; *Social Studies; *United States History ABSTRACT Providing a basic framework for a one year American history course for secondary students, this curriculum guide offers help for teachers in planning, organizing, and teaching social studies. Designed to cover the whole paLorama of history (1450 through 1969) in sequence, the course aims tc help students understand early events and how they are related to contemporary affairs. The multi-concept plan is based upon the assumption that the subject matter of American history can be presented in terms of general organizing concepts. These general ideas (primary concepts) serve as the organizational framework for factual content (secondary concepts) of the course. The students, taught by this plan, become aware of the relativity of historical interpretation and learn to organize facts into meaningful patterns. The thirty-six weekcourse in American history is divided into 17 units of instruction, with each unit varying from one to three weeks in duration. The last three units are devoted to the developing twentieth-century conflict between Capitalism and Communism. Concepts, content, guides, oral and written activities, and bibliography of student and teacher materials are presented for each unit.
