  • The Legacy of Trauma in Collective Memory As Seen Through a Study of Evacuation Day
    THE DAY NEW YORK FORGOT: THE LEGACY OF TRAUMA IN COLLECTIVE MEMORY AS SEEN THROUGH A STUDY OF EVACUATION DAY Cody Osterman A Thesis Submitted to the Graduate College of Bowling Green State University in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of MASTER OF ARTS December 2016 Committee: Andrew Schocket, Advisor Rebecca Mancuso ii ABSTRACT Andrew Schocket, Advisor On November 25 1783, the British evacuated New York City after occupying the city for seven-years during the American Revolution. As Washington and his troops marched into Manhattan to take command of the city, both those who fled New York, as Washington did in 1776, and those who endured the occupation joyously celebrated his return, which for them, marked the end of the Revolution. Each year from there on, the 25th of November was celebrated as a day that would later be titled Evacuation Day. This work analyzes how Evacuation Day was celebrated from 1783 to 1883. This study examines the reception to each year’s Evacuation Day celebration through a rhetorical analysis of local newspaper coverage of the event and argues that traumatic memory is very fragile and unless well-cultivated fails to transfer to from generation to generation—replaced instead with meaningless ritual and bombastic spectacle. iii To my parents, Howard and Cathy Osterman, without which none of this is possible. iv ACKNOWLEDGMENTS I would like to thank both members of my committee, Andrew Schocket and Rebecca Mancuso, for their support and feedback throughout this process. Working with these two scholars offered me the guidance and flexibility I needed to make this project possible.

  • THE CHOLERA YEARS the United States in 1832, 1849, and 1866
    CHARLES E. ROSENBERG THE CHOLERA YEARS The United States in 1832, 1849, and 1866 WITH A NEW AFTERWORD CHICAGO AND LONDON THE UNIVERSITY OF CHICAGO PRESS There has not been an active case of cholera in the United States for almost fifty years, and to the present-day American physician it is no more than a chapter in a textbook of tropi- cal medicine. To his nineteenth-century counterpart it was a soul-trying and sometimes fatal reality. Cholera was the classic epidemic disease of the nineteenth century, as plague had been of the fourteenth. When cholera first appeared in the United States in 1832, yellow fever and smallpox, the great epidemic diseases of the previous two cen- turies, were no longer truly national problems. Yellow fever had disappeared from the North, and vaccination had de- prived smallpox of much of its menace. Cholera, on the other hand, appeared in almost every part of the country in the course of the century. It flourished in the great cities, New York, Cincinnati, Chicago; it crossed the continent with the forty-niners; its victims included Iowa dirt farmers and New York longshoremen, Wisconsin lead miners and Negro field hands. Before I 817, there had probably never been a cholera epi- demic outside the Far East; during the nineteenth century, it spread through almost the entire world.' Of all epidemic dis- 1 Though there is some controversy as to the extent of cholera's early pere- grinations, most historians of the disease agree that it has been endemic only I INTRODUCTION 3 and darkened, the skin of his hands and feet drawn and puckered, “One often,” recalled a New York physician, “thought of the Laocoon, but looked in vain for the serpent.” Death may intervene within a day, sometimes within a few hours of the appearance of the first symptoms.

Pace All Rights Reserved 2 3 The Society for Establishing Useful Manufactures was one of the first corporations in American history. The company was an attempt by Secretary of the Treasury Alexander Hamilton, with the help of his Assistant Secretary of the Treasury Tench Coxe, to turn Hamilton’s “Report on Manufactures” into a physical reality. Although the SUM would dissolve only five years after openings its doors, there is plenty to extract from the company’s practices. Through the SUM, Alexander Hamilton and his Federalist contemporaries attempted to recreate, and unite, a weak and fledgling United States by strengthening the nation politically and economically. The Society was Hamilton’s first true attempt to bind the nation together through interdependence of economic affairs, therefore attempting to give the nation its first true common interest that would help all people regardless of region or class.

Documents and Archives in Early America RANDALL C. JIMERSON RÉSUMÉ L’intérêt pour les documents d’archives en Amérique est né de motifs religieux et d’une préoccupation pour les droits des colons. Vers la fin du 18e siècle, les historiens s’appuyaient de plus en plus sur les documents originaux pour établir les faits et la vérité « objective ». À partir de la Révolution, les documents historiques ser- vaient des buts patriotiques et nationalistes, comme le culte des héros. Deux traditions différentes mais complémentaires résultent des efforts pour préserver les documents jugés irremplacables : la multiplication de copies par 1’édition et la publication, et 1’établissement de dépôts afin de protéger les documents originaux. On assiste alors au début de la conscience archivistique en Amérique, menée par des sociétés historiques privées. Les archives servent alors les besoins de 1’élite sociale et confirment leur pouvoir.
