Heartfelt thanks is extended to each. Sincere apologies are extended to anyone that has been omitted: Mr. Alan Anderson Reverend Dan Ariail, Pastor, Maranatha Baptist Church, Plains, Georgia Ms. Elizabeth Barthold, Historian, Historic American Building Survey, Washington, D.C. Mr. Fred Boyles, Superintendent, Jimmy Carter National Historic Site and Preservation District Mr. and Mrs. Hugh Carter President and Mrs. James Earl Carter, Jr. Mrs. Sybil Carter Mr. Dale L. Couch, Archivist, Georgia Department of Archives and History Ms. Madeline Edwards Mr. Martin Elzy, Assistant Director, Jimmy Carter Presidential Library, Atlanta, Georgia Ms. Laura Feller, Historian, History Division, National Park Service, Washington, D.C. Mr. Charles Hicks Dr. Steven Hochman, Carter Center, Atlanta, Georgia Ms. Grace Jackson Ms. Rae Nacke Mr. John Pope Lake Blackshear Regional Library Staff, Americus, Georgia Dr. Patricia Limerick, University of Colorado, Boulder Dr. Elizabeth Lyons, Georgia Historic Preservation Officer, Atlanta, Georgia Mr. John R. Morgan, Archeologist, Georgia Department of Natural Resources Mr. Robert B.

A number of specific acknowledgements are in order. Especially helpful were the oral histories recorded by National Park Service Chief Historian Edwin C. Bearss and Ranger Jim Small. Through their efforts, valuable information that otherwise would have been unavailable was recorded and preserved. Without such foresight, cooperation and expertise, such studies would be impossible. v The professional assistance and expertise lent the project by Ms. Rae Nacke of Denver, Colorado is gratefully acknowledged. Without her skill and patience as an oral history transcriber, much of this information would not be available. Mr. Kenneth H. Thomas, Jr.'s genealogical studies concerning the Carter family were of great help in understanding the background and history of the family in southwest Georgia. Reverend Dan AriaiTs generosity in spending the better part of an afternoon explaining various subjects relating to the South, Southerners and religion proved invaluable to this Missouri native. This study is the richer for his review and patience. The article entitled "Historicism, Marxism and Psychohistory: Three Approaches to the Problem of Historical Individuality" by Dr. Robert Pois of the University of Colorado at Boulder served as one of the center themes for this study; his classes, intellectual insights and generosity of spirit will always mean a great deal to me. Dr. Henry King Stanford and Dr. Steven Hochman, both of the Jimmy Carter National Historic Site and Preservation District Advisory Commission were generous enough to give of their busy schedules to review drafts of the study and lend valuable assistance. Their criticisms and insights were crucial to the fine tuning of this work. I am indebted to both for their help and patience. The fine research and documentation accomplish by Ms. Elizabeth Barthold and the HABS/HAER team in 1989 made the second section of this work possible. Heartfelt thanks is extended to them and their remarkable office. Finally, thanks to my colleagues at the Denver Service Center of the National Park Service and the Southeast Regional Office; their review of drafts and discussion of difficult questions has made this a better study. All interpretations or errors in fact, of course, remain the responsibility of the author. William Patrick O'Brien vi PREFACE On January 26, 1976 the Jimmy Carter National Historic Site and Preservation District was determined eligible for inclusion in the National Register of Historic Places at the request of the General Services Administration. The nomination was certified by the keeper of the National Register on June 28, 1984. On December 23, 1987, the 100th Congress of the United States of America, under Public Law 100-26 formally established the Jimmy Carter National Historic Site and Preservation District in Plains, Georgia as a unit of the National Park Service, United States Department of Interior. The legislation empowers the government to "(1) preserve the key sites and structures located within the historic site associated with Jimmy Carter during his life span; (2) provide for the interpretation of the presidency of Jimmy Carter; and (3) present the history of a small rural southern town." Since the park's nomination to the National Register and establishment, various studies have been accomplished by the National Park Service, including a Research Report On Structures and Sites for the Proposed Jimmy Carter National Historic Site (Sandra Dixon, Southeast Regional Office, 1985); a Statement for Interpretation (No Author, 1988); a Statement for Management (John Tucker, Superintendent, 1988); and the Historic American Buildings Survey/Historic American Engineering Record's Survey of the Plains National Historic District (Elizabeth Barthold, et al., 1989). In addition, the Georgia Department of Industry, Trade and Tourism contracted for A Study of Tourists Who used the Georgia Visitor Information Centers During 1988 (1988, Davidson-Peterson Associates, Inc.) One such center is located at Plains. In 1988, an Advisory Commission for the Jimmy Carter National Historic Site was established to assist future planning for the resource. In addition, the Plains Task Force, a local planning group, also meets regularly with the National Park Service to assist in planning for future projects. vii INTRODUCTION The purpose of this study is threefold. It places the extant cultural resources of Plains, Georgia within the context of an American presidential hometown. It assesses those resources that reflect important themes in the life of the 39th President of the United States as he grew to adulthood in the region of southwestern Georgia in the first half of the 20th century. Finally, it offers analyses and recommendations for specific cultural resources and future interpretation. The special history study is a general guide to future study and interpretation, not a definitive historical analysis of the Carters and Plains. Our knowledge of Carter and his hometown is limited; little research has been accomplished concerning the social history of Plains as it applies to Jimmy Carter and his political evolution and career. Research and writing of this study was accomplished over a nine month period, concurrent with the transcribing and editing of approximately 1,300 pages of audio and video taped oral history interviews by National Park Service staff from 1988 to 1990. The interpretation presented in the following pages relies on these primary source materials and other secondary source information. As such, the product is a document broad in scope, attempting to call out specific stories and ideas important to the park's general planning and interpretation. This preliminary

  • Hearing Parables in the Patch by Joel Snider
    80 Copyright © 2006 Center for Christian Ethics at Baylor University Hearing Parables in the Patch BY JOEL SNIDER Clarence Jordan was an unusually able interpreter of Jesus’ parables. Not only his academic study, but also his small-town background and experiences in establish- ing the interracial Koinonia Farm in the 1940s shaped his ability to hear the parables in “the Cotton Patch.” ven a casual reading of the New Testament reveals that Jesus, though a carpenter by trade, used a large number of farming images in his Eteaching. Rural scenes and small-town settings provide the back- ground for much of his message. He talked about the difficulty of plowing in a straight line as an illustration of discipleship (Luke 9:62), described evangelists as harvest workers (Matthew 9:37), and interpreted his rejection at Nazareth in terms of small-town dynamics (Mark 6:4). Consequently, some of the cultural keys to understanding Jesus’ message lie in the rural and small-village life of ancient Palestine. This fact is particularly true when examining his parables. Like much of his other teachings, the stories of Jesus often reflect rural scenes and small- town dynamics. He spoke about a tenant farmer’s good luck as an analogy for discovering the gospel (Matthew 13:44) and described different types of soil as means of understanding various ways people receive the gospel (Mark 4:1-9; Matthew 13:1-9; Luke 8:4-8). Noxious weeds highlighted more than one of his stories (Matthew 13:24-30 and 13:31-32). You can easily think of other examples.

  • Visualizing Levinas:Existence and Existents Through Mulholland Drive
    VISUALIZING LEVINAS: EXISTENCE AND EXISTENTS THROUGH MULHOLLAND DRIVE, MEMENTO, AND VANILLA SKY Holly Lynn Baumgartner A Dissertation Submitted to the Graduate College of Bowling Green State University in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of DOCTOR OF PHILOSOPHY May 2005 Committee: Ellen Berry, Advisor Kris Blair Don Callen Edward Danziger Graduate Faculty Representative Erin Labbie ii © 2005 Holly Lynn Baumgartner All Rights Reserved iii ABSTRACT Ellen Berry, Advisor This dissertation engages in an intentional analysis of philosopher Emmanuel Levinas’s book Existence and Existents through the reading of three films: Memento (2001), Vanilla Sky (2001), and Mulholland Drive, (2001). The “modes” and other events of being that Levinas associates with the process of consciousness in Existence and Existents, such as fatigue, light, hypostasis, position, sleep, and time, are examined here. Additionally, the most contested spaces in the films, described as a “Waking Dream,” is set into play with Levinas’s work/ The magnification of certain points of entry into Levinas’s philosophy opened up new pathways for thinking about method itself. Philosophically, this dissertation considers the question of how we become subjects, existents who have taken up Existence, and how that process might be revealed in film/ Additionally, the importance of Existence and Existents both on its own merit and to Levinas’s body of work as a whole, especially to his ethical project is underscored. A second set of entry points are explored in the conclusion of this dissertation, in particular how film functions in relation to philosophy, specifically that of Levinas. What kind of critical stance toward film would be an ethical one? Does the very materiality of film, its fracturing of narrative, time, and space, provide an embodied formulation of some of the basic tenets of Levinas’s thinking? Does it create its own philosophy through its format? And finally, analyzing the results of the project yielded far more complicated and unsettling questions than they answered.

DESCRIPTORS *Archives; *Authors; *Females; Modern History; Presidents of the United States; Primary Sources; Resource Materials; Social History; *United States History IDENTIFIERS *First Ladies (United States); *Personal Writing; Public Records; Social Power; Twentieth Century; Womens History ABSTRACT This collection of essays about the Presidential wives of the 20th century through Nancy Reagan. An exploration of the records of first ladies will elicit diverse insights about the historical impact of these women in their times. Interpretive theories that explain modern first ladies are still tentative and exploratory. The contention in the essays, however, is that whatever direction historical writing on presidential wives may follow, there is little question that the future role of first ladies is more likely to expand than to recede to the days of relatively silent and passive helpmates. Following a foreword and an introduction, essays in the collection and their authors are, as follows: "Meeting a New Century: The Papers of Four Twentieth-Century First Ladies" (Mary M.
