  • Lowney Turner Handy Library Collection (PDF)
    Department of Special Collections Cunningham Memorial Library Indiana State University BOOKS FROM THE LOWNEY TURNER HANDY LIBRARY AT THE COLONY List Prepared & Edited by David Vancil June 8, 2001 / Rev. July 30, 2001 / April 26, 2002 Lowney Turner Handy, writing teacher of James Jones and others, maintained a writing school in southern Illinois. Her teaching approach included the use of various works from her library which students had to read and copy by hand or by using a typewriter in the process of becoming familiar with accomplished writing styles. Most of the books listed below are fiction and poetry, although an occasional title in a different realm is also included. Many of the books are annotated by Handy with comments, sometimes on the pastedown, sometimes in the body of the work.. A few items, notably his own works, were gifts from James Jones. Also included in the collection are published works of other successful students, e.g., Jere Peacock., Tom Chamales, and Edwin Daly. These books were about to be discarded when Elizabeth Bevington, an antiquarian bookseller and member of the Friends of the Cunningham Memorial Library, retrieved them and donated them to the library as the Lowney Turner Handy Library Collection to be housed within the Rare Books Collection.

Scholars or policymakers who identify themselves as realists, of course, do not all perfectly match the realism ideal type. We find, however, that the four assumptions identified with this perspective are useful as a general statement of the main lines of realist thought and the basis on which hypotheses and theories are developed. First, states are the principal or most important actors in an anarchical world lack- ing central legitimate governance. States represent the key units of analysis , whether one is dealing with ancient Greek city-states or modern nation-states. The study of international relations is the study of relations among these units, particularly major powers as they shape world politics (witness the United States and the Soviet Union during the Cold War) and engage in the costliest wars (World Wars I and II). Realists who use the concept of system usually refer to an international system of states. What of non-state actors? International organizations such as the United Nations may aspire to the status of independent actor, but from the realist perspective, this aspiration has not in fact been achieved to any significant degree. Realists tend to see international organizations as doing no more than their member states direct.

  • A Man for All Seasons: Historical Memory and John Marshall
    A Man for All Seasons: Historical Memory and John Marshall Daniel Frost, Clemson University Keith E. Whittington, Princeton University The heroes of American politics are often represented as timeless figures, sometimes liter- ally carved in stone. A growing literature on collective memory, however, has emphasized the ways in which historical reputations are socially constructed—and reconstructed—over time. This article considers Chief Justice John Marshall as a case study in this dynamic pro- cess of constructing historical reputation. Marshall stands above all others as “the great chief justice,” but nonetheless his reputation has not always been secure. Surveying both citations to Marshall’s key opinions and popular and scholarly discussions of the chief justice him- self across time, the article shows how Marshall’s reputation has been remade over time to fit the political needs of the moment. Marshall’s durability as a historical figure has turned not on a single set of particularly timeless accomplishments but on the diversity of his con- tributions to the constitutional canon. Keywords: U.S. Supreme Court history, John Marshall, collective memory, judicial reputation hief Justice John Marshall has long been known in the United States as “the C great chief justice.”1 A larger-than-life statue of Marshall presides over the ground floor of the U.S. Supreme Court building.2 He is routinely the subject of book-length biographies, winning scholarly and popular attention that far ex- ceeds what other justices have been able to command. There is little question that Marshall left a lasting mark on the Court. He was not the first to serve as chief justice, but by a wide margin he served the longest in that office.3 His tenure spanned several presidential administrations and a trans- The authors would like to thank Michelle Stone and Phillips Workman for excellent research assistance, as well as several anonymous reviewers for their helpful comments.

    Precious Nonsense NEWSLETTER OF THE MIDWESTERN GILBERT AND SULLIVAN SOCIETY April 1997 -- Issue 52 Tentative Pinafore Outing Member Hugh Locker has offered to organize a Midwestern Gilbert and Sullivan Society Outing to one of the matinee performances of Light Opera Works' June 8, 1997, performance of H.M.S. Pinafore, depending on if enough people want to go. If you are interested in going, call him right away: (815) 385-3676 The final price for the outing has yet to be determined, but figure on the show tickets costing between $40.00 and $50.00, plus dinner afterwards. As these affairs generally work, participants make their own arrangements to get to Cahn Auditorium. Hopefully, enough people would be interested to get a group rate on the tickets. We need at least 20 people to get a group rate (tell your friends!). Afterwards, everybody goes to some local restaurant for dinner. Everybody pays their own checks, which saves a lot of calculations and bad feelings later. These arrangements have worked out pretty well in the past, though. This outing may come off, or it may not: Please call Hugh Locker at (815) 385-3676 by May 10, 1997 so plans can be made or cancelled. Fair moon, to thee I sing, Bright regent of the heavens, Say, why is everything Either at sixes or at sevens? Here we are again, and I'm sorry about the delay. Things here have really been at sixes and sevens for the last several months. But with the cheerful sunshine of (and the flowers that bloom in the) Spring, we'll get there.
