  • Historic Costuming Presented by Jill Harrison
    Historic Southern Indiana Interpretation Workshop, March 2-4, 1998 Historic Costuming Presented By Jill Harrison IMPRESSIONS Each of us makes an impression before ever saying a word. We size up visitors all the time, anticipating behavior from their age, clothing, and demeanor. What do they think of interpreters, disguised as we are in the threads of another time? While stressing the importance of historically accurate costuming (outfits) and accoutrements for first- person interpreters, there are many reasons compromises are made - perhaps a tight budget or lack of skilled construction personnel. Items such as shoes and eyeglasses are usually a sticking point when assembling a truly accurate outfit. It has been suggested that when visitors spot inaccurate details, interpreter credibility is downgraded and visitors launch into a frame of mind to find other inaccuracies. This may be true of visitors who are historical reenactors, buffs, or other interpreters. Most visitors, though, lack the heightened awareness to recognize the difference between authentic period detailing and the less-than-perfect substitutions. But everyone will notice a wristwatch, sunglasses, or tennis shoes. We have a responsibility to the public not to misrepresent the past; otherwise we are not preserving history but instead creating our own fiction and calling it the truth. Realistically, the appearance of the interpreter, our information base, our techniques, and our environment all affect the first-person experience. Historically accurate costuming perfection is laudable and reinforces academic credence. The minute details can be a springboard to important educational concepts; but the outfit is not the linchpin on which successful interpretation hangs.

  • THE GADSDEN Volume 229 GAB
    February 2009 THE GADSDEN Volume 229 GAB President’s Message 2 Birthdays/Community News 4 Activities & Festivities 6-7 The Chaplain’s Corner 11 Philip Simmons: A Consummate Artist and his Reflections Barbara Tuck As we enter Black History month, with the awe-inspiring inauguration of our first African- American president fresh in our minds, it’s fitting to celebrate living black history in the person of Philip Simmons who now resides among us here at BG. Powerful in his art and character, Simmons is the epitome of someone who’s lived humbly yet has achieved the summit of success in his chosen art—designing and creating beautiful pieces of ornamental ironwork. Eight years old, with fifty cents in his pocket, Philip left his grandparents’ home on Daniel Is- land and took the ferry to Charleston to live with his mother and to attend the first class at Buist School. Lured by the click-click-click of the blacksmith shop at the end of Calhoun Street, which had been owned by a former slave, Simmons couldn’t wait to start a promised apprenticeship at age 13. Once he started, he kept alive the tradition of African-American blacksmiths for the next 80 years. Simmons left horseshoes behind and created elaborate designs in ironwork that now adorn and char- acterize Charleston’s beautiful homes and buildings. Simmons reflected on black history in a bench he de- signed in a collaborative effort to commemorate Rosa Parks’ defiance on a Montgomery bus. The size of a bus seat for two, this simple bench made an awesome statement—with the outline of a bus and the year 1955 on its back.

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. Wolf skill); "Not One to Stay at Home: The Papers of Lou Henry Hoover" (Dale C.

  • Southwesterner: Summer 1999
    SUMMER 1999 THE INAUGURATION OF PRESIDENT MERRIMAN 1999 COMMENCEMENT THE SOUTHWESTERNER Vol. 35, No. 2, Summer 1999 From the President A couple of issues back, I told you about our plans to revitalize the college’s alumni affairs program. This is an update on our progress. The college has hired Pam Cockayne to the position of director of alumni programs. Nan Hinson, formerly of the president’s office, and Ruth Archambeau, already in the institutional ad- vancement office, are joining Pam as assistant directors of alumni programs. So, the staff is in place. So is the vision. Pam has laid out plans for building the “Southwestern Grapevine,” a gro wing network of contacts between SC alumni, between our alumni and our current students, and between the college and our gradu- ates. In the coming year the grapevine will be growing in all directions, providing expanded opportunities for alumni gatherings, alumni travel opportunities, an alumni Dick Merriman admission network, opportunities for career networking with students who need your help as they seek jobs after graduation, and much more. When students go to a high quality college, they know they are go- ing to get a first-rate education. But they also know that a network of contacts and friendships—a very valuable alumni network—will be waiting for them when they graduate. I don’t see why it should be any different for SC students and alumni. That’s how premier colleges oper- ate. We welcome your involvement and your help as we build the South- western Grapevine for you and your classmates.

  • American Book Awards 2004
    BEFORE COLUMBUS FOUNDATION PRESENTS THE AMERICAN BOOK AWARDS 2004 America was intended to be a place where freedom from discrimination was the means by which equality was achieved. Today, American culture THE is the most diverse ever on the face of this earth. Recognizing literary excel- lence demands a panoramic perspective. A narrow view strictly to the mainstream ignores all the tributaries that feed it. American literature is AMERICAN not one tradition but all traditions. From those who have been here for thousands of years to the most recent immigrants, we are all contributing to American culture. We are all being translated into a new language. BOOK Everyone should know by now that Columbus did not “discover” America. Rather, we are all still discovering America—and we must continue to do AWARDS so. The Before Columbus Foundation was founded in 1976 as a nonprofit educational and service organization dedicated to the promotion and dissemination of contemporary American multicultural literature. The goals of BCF are to provide recognition and a wider audience for the wealth of cultural and ethnic diversity that constitutes American writing. BCF has always employed the term “multicultural” not as a description of an aspect of American literature, but as a definition of all American litera- ture. BCF believes that the ingredients of America’s so-called “melting pot” are not only distinct, but integral to the unique constitution of American Culture—the whole comprises the parts. In 1978, the Board of Directors of BCF (authors, editors, and publishers representing the multicultural diversity of American Literature) decided that one of its programs should be a book award that would, for the first time, respect and honor excellence in American literature without restric- tion or bias with regard to race, sex, creed, cultural origin, size of press or ad budget, or even genre.
