Colonial Williamsburg Interpreter Index 1980 Colonial Williamsburg Interpreter Index 1980 - 2009 The Colonial Williamsburg Foundation's Department of Interpretive Education produced The Colonial Williamsburg Interpreter for employee education.

  • Williamsburg Reserve Collection Celebrating the Orgin of American Style
    “So that the future may learn from the past.” — John d. rockefeller, Jr. 108 williamsburg reserve collection Celebrating the Orgin of American Style. 131109 colonial williamsburg Eighteenth-Century Williamsburg, the capital of the colony of Virginia, owed its inception to politics, its design to human ingenuity, and its prosperity to government, commerce and war. Though never larger in size than a small English country town, Virginia’s metropolis became Virginia’s center of imperial rule, transatlantic trade, enlightened ideas and genteel fashion. Williamsburg served the populace of the surrounding colonies as a marketplace for goods and services, as a legal, administrative and religious center, and as a resort for shopping,information and diversion. But the capital was also a complex urban community with its own patterns of work, family life and cultural activities. Within Williamsburg’s year round populations, a rich tapestry of personal, familial, work, social, racial, gender and cultural relationships could be found. In Williamsburg patriots such as Patrick Henry protested parliamentary taxation by asserting their right as freeborn Englishmen to be taxed only by representatives of their own choosing. When British authorities reasserted their parliamentary sovereign right to tax the King’s subjects wherever they reside, Thomas Jefferson, George Mason, James Madison, George Washington and other Virginians claimed their right to govern themselves by virtue of their honesty and the logic of common sense. Many other Americans joined these Virginians in defending their countrymen’s liberties against what they came to regard as British tyranny. They fought for and won their independence. And they then fashioned governments and institutions of self-rule, many of which guide our lives today.

  • 'Deprived of Their Liberty'
    'DEPRIVED OF THEIR LIBERTY': ENEMY PRISONERS AND THE CULTURE OF WAR IN REVOLUTIONARY AMERICA, 1775-1783 by Trenton Cole Jones A dissertation submitted to Johns Hopkins University in conformity with the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy Baltimore, Maryland June, 2014 © 2014 Trenton Cole Jones All Rights Reserved Abstract Deprived of Their Liberty explores Americans' changing conceptions of legitimate wartime violence by analyzing how the revolutionaries treated their captured enemies, and by asking what their treatment can tell us about the American Revolution more broadly. I suggest that at the commencement of conflict, the revolutionary leadership sought to contain the violence of war according to the prevailing customs of warfare in Europe. These rules of war—or to phrase it differently, the cultural norms of war— emphasized restricting the violence of war to the battlefield and treating enemy prisoners humanely. Only six years later, however, captured British soldiers and seamen, as well as civilian loyalists, languished on board noisome prison ships in Massachusetts and New York, in the lead mines of Connecticut, the jails of Pennsylvania, and the camps of Virginia and Maryland, where they were deprived of their liberty and often their lives by the very government purporting to defend those inalienable rights. My dissertation explores this curious, and heretofore largely unrecognized, transformation in the revolutionaries' conduct of war by looking at the experience of captivity in American hands. Throughout the dissertation, I suggest three principal factors to account for the escalation of violence during the war. From the onset of hostilities, the revolutionaries encountered an obstinate enemy that denied them the status of legitimate combatants, labeling them as rebels and traitors.

U-~wd CONDITION I (Check Onel I (Check One) I Altered Un0lt.r.d I n Mowed hipinol Sin OR!CINAL (IILnoanJ PHIIfCAL APPEARLNCE Powhatan is a classic two-story Virginia mansion of the Early Georgian period. The>rectangular structure is five bays long by two bays deep, with centered doors on front and rear. Its brickwork exhibits the highest standards of Colonial craftsmanship. The walls are laid in Flemish bond with glazed headers above the bevelled water table with English bond below. Rubbed work appears at the corners, window and door jambs, and belt course, while gauged work appears in the splayed flat arches over the windows and doors. The basement windows are topped by gauged segmental arches. The two massive interior end T-shaped chimneys are finely execute4 but are relatively late examples of their form. The chimney caps are both corbelled and gauged. ~eciusethe hbuse was gutted bi fire, none but the masonry members are I I original. Nearly all the evidences of.the post-fire rebuilding were m removed during a thorough renwation in 1948. As part of the renovation, rn the hipped roof was replaced following the lines of the original roof as indicated by scars in the chimneys. The roof is pierced by dormer rn windows which may or my not have bean an original feature, The Early - Georgian style sash, sills, architraves, and modillion cornice also date z from the renovation.
