The roof can also identify multiple building phases. Our objective is to widen the understanding of vernacular architecture and historical settlement in the Weald. We study the lesser traditional buildings in the Weald including many built by the lesser gentry.

  • Edward T. Hall and the History of Intercultural Communication: the United States and Japan
    Keio Communication Review No. 24, 2002 Edward T. Hall and The History of Intercultural Communication: The United States and Japan by Everett M. ROGERS William B. HART Yoshitaka MIIKE Abstract Here we trace the role of anthropologist Edward T. Hall in founding the scholarly field of intercultural communication during the 1951-1955 period when he was at the Foreign Service Institute of the U.S. Department of States. The scholarly field of intercultural communication was then mainly advanced by university-based scholars of communication in the United States and Japan, and in other countries. The development of intercultural communication in the U.S. and Japan is analyzed here. The Founding Role of Edward T. Hall This essay explores (1) the development of the original paradigm for intercultural communication, and (2) how this paradigm was followed by scholars in the United States and in Japan. The term “intercultural communication” was used in Edward T. Hall’s (1959) influential book, The Silent Language, and Hall is generally acknowledged to be the founder of the field (Leeds-Hurwitz, 1990; Rogers and Steinfatt, 1999). Hall was born in St. Louis, but grew up mainly in the American Southwest. As a young man in the 1930s, Hall worked for the U.S. Indian Service, building roads and dams with construction crews of Hopis and Navajos (Hall, 1992, 1994). He earned a Ph.D. in anthropology in 1942 at Columbia University, then one of the most important centers in anthropological study. During World War II Hall served as an officer with an African American regiment in Europe and in the Pacific (Hall, 1947).

  • Martin Cheairs House Or Ferguson Hall Historical Notes
    Martin Cheairs House or Ferguson Hall Historical Notes SHHC Recognition Document: https://www.springhilltn.org/DocumentCenter/View/8/Resolution-08- 43?bidId= SHHC Video Series Link: https://www.springhilltn.org/CivicMedia?VID=Ferguson-Hall-Historic-Video- Series-25 *Statement of Significance* The first house built on this property was called "Ann's Bower." It was built by a Revolutionary War soldier who was awarded the land grant prior to 1819. The property was sold to the Peters family who built another house there. The last of these early log houses was torn down in 1878. The Peters family owned the property until the late 1830s. They sold a part of it to Dr. John Haddox, a local physician. Dr. Haddox built a house on the land, prior to his death in 1854. Martin Cheairs acquired the property from Doctor Haddox at about the same time his brother, Major Nathan Francis Cheairs, was building "Rippa Villa" manor, a magnificent estate, located a short distance down Columbia Pike. Both of these houses were located on the same side of the pike and they were surrounded by acres of park-like woodlands. It is believed that Nathan Vaught, the master builder of Columbia, worked on both of these houses during the years prior to the U.S. Civil War, and that the brick was made by William McKissack's slaves. The two estates are similar in style, plan and proportion. The Martin Cheairs house may have served as a model for "Rippa Villa." Both houses are constructed of brick and the portico entrances are identical.

  • Vernacular Houses Listing Selection Guide Summary
    Domestic 1: Vernacular Houses Listing Selection Guide Summary Historic England’s twenty listing selection guides help to define which historic buildings are likely to meet the relevant tests for national designation and be included on the National Heritage List for England. Listing has been in place since 1947 and operates under the Planning (Listed Buildings and Conservation Areas) Act 1990. If a building is felt to meet the necessary standards, it is added to the List. This decision is taken by the Government’s Department for Digital, Culture, Media and Sport (DCMS). These selection guides were originally produced by English Heritage in 2011: slightly revised versions are now being published by its successor body, Historic England. The DCMS‘ Principles of Selection for Listing Buildings set out the over-arching criteria of special architectural or historic interest required for listing and the guides provide more detail of relevant considerations for determining such interest for particular building types. See https://www.gov.uk/government/publications/principles-of- selection-for-listing-buildings. Each guide falls into two halves. The first defines the types of structures included in it, before going on to give a brisk overview of their characteristics and how these developed through time, with notice of the main architects and representative examples of buildings. The second half of the guide sets out the particular tests in terms of its architectural or historic interest a building has to meet if it is to be listed. A select bibliography gives suggestions for further reading. This guide, one of four on different types of Domestic Buildings, covers vernacular houses, that is dwellings erected mainly before the Victorian period when increasing standardisation of materials and design became widespread.
