THE EXPULSION OF SIR JOHN HARVEY FROM VIRGINIA. WM. WARNER MOSS JIR. Submitted in competition for the J. Taylor Ellyson Medal in History University of Richmond Richmond, Virginia 1923 THE_ EXPULSION OF SIR JOH~T K.\.."qVEY When King James began to fear the preach ing of Sir Edwin Sandys and the meetings of the Virginia Company, believing that the seeds they sowed were too democratic, he felt sure that the dissolution or at least the royal control of the CompE>,ny was a necessity. He therefore attempted to interfere in the election of the treasurer but failed. Enraged, he commanded Captain Na.thaniel Butler to write a libel entltled "The Unmasking of Virginia", which held the Virginia Company responsible for all the evils in America. This served him little better than his interference, so, in April t623, he appointed a commission of "certayne obscure persons"', among them John Harvey and Samuel Matthews, whose duty it was to investigate the colony and furnish evi dence against the Company. -

1 Introducing American Silent Film Comedy: Clowns, Conformity, Consumerism
Notes 1 Introducing American Silent Film Comedy: Clowns, Conformity, Consumerism 1. This speech has often been erroneously quoted (not least by Adam Curtis in his 2002 documentary The Century of the Self ) as ‘You have taken over the job of creating desire and transformed people into constantly moving happi- ness machines’ – a tremendously resonant phrase, but not one which actually appears in the text of Hoover’s speech. Spencer Howard of the Herbert Hoover Presidential Library attributes the corrupted version to a mis-transcription several decades later. 2. The title of his 1947 essay. His key writings in the 1920s were Crystallizing Public Opinion (1923) and Propaganda (1928). 3. Of course, not all responded sympathetically to the film’s vicious racist message. The NAACP mounted a particularly effective campaign against the film, which was banned in several states and sparked mass protests in others. For the full story see Melvyn Stoke, D.W. Griffith’s ‘The Birth a Nation’, Oxford: Oxford University Press, 2008. 4. CPI titles made in 1917/18 include America’s Answer, Under Four Flags and Pershing’s Crusaders – distributors who wanted the new Fairbanks or Pickford picture would be forced to take a CPI release as well. 2 A Convention of Crazy Bugs: Mack Sennett and the US’s Immigrant Unconscious 1. The temptation, here, is to regard Sennett’s name and the Keystone brand as being broadly synonymous, but one should remember that Sennett started off, first, as an actor and then, as a director at Biograph in 1909; the Key- stone Company was set up by Adam Kessel and Charles Baumann in 1912 (Sennett was never the owner). -

Revolutionary Leaders of North Carolina
North Carolina State Normal & Industrial College Historical Publications Number 2 REVOLUTIONARY LEADERS OF NORTH CAROLINA BY R. D. W. CONNOR SECRETARY NORTH CAROLINA HISTORICAL COMMISSION Lecturer on North Carolina History, State Normal College Issued under the Direction of the Department of History W. C. JACKSON, EDITOR PUBLISHED BY THE COLLEGE 1916 PRESSES OF THE PETRIE COMPANY HIOH POINT. N. C I NORTH CAROLINA FROM 1765 TO 1790 INTRODUCTORY LECTURE Two periods in the history of the United States seem to me to stand out above all others in dramatic interest and historic importance. One is the decade from 1860 to 1870, the other is the quarter-century from 1765 to 1790. Of the two both in interest and importance precedence must be given to the latter. The former was a period of almost superhuman ef fort, achievement, and sacrifice for the preservation of the life of the nation, but it did not evolve any new social, political, or economic principles. Great prin ciples already thought out and established were saved from annihilation, and given a broader scope than ever before in the history of mankind, but no new idea or ideal was involved in the struggle. The ideas and ideals involved in the struggle of the sixties were those that had already been established during the quarter-century from 1765 to 1790. That epoch was a period of origins. Ideas and ideals of government developed in America then came into conflict with the ideas and ideals of Europe. Colonies founded on these new principles revolted against the old, threw off the yoke of their mother country, organized inde pendent states, and having achieved their independ ence, established a self-governing nation on the fed eral principle on a scale never before attempted in the history of the world. -
CORNFLAKES, GOD, and CIRCUMCISION: JOHN HARVEY KELLOGG and TRANSATLANTIC HEALTH REFORM by AUSTIN ELI LOIGNON DISSERTATION Submi
CORNFLAKES, GOD, AND CIRCUMCISION: JOHN HARVEY KELLOGG AND TRANSATLANTIC HEALTH REFORM by AUSTIN ELI LOIGNON DISSERTATION Submitted in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy at The University of Texas at Arlington May, 2019 Arlington, Texas Supervising Committee: Steven G. Reinhardt, Supervising Professor Kathryne E. Beebe Robert B. Fairbanks Copyright © by Austin Eli Loignon 2019 All Rights Reserved ABSTRACT Cornflakes, God, and Circumcision: John Harvey Kellogg and Transatlantic Health Reform Austin Eli Loignon, Ph.D. The University of Texas at Arlington, 2019 Supervising Professor: Steven G. Reinhardt The health reform movements of the nineteenth and early twentieth century impacted American and European societies in profound ways. These reforms, while usually represented in a national context, existed within a transatlantic framework that facilitated a multitude of exchanges and transfers. John Harvey Kellogg—surgeon, health reformer, and inventor of cornflakes— developed a transatlantic network of health reformers, medical practitioners, and scientists to improve his own reforms and establish new ones. Through intercultural transfer Kellogg borrowed, modified, and implemented European health reform practices at his Battle Creek Sanitarium in the United States. These transfers facilitated developments in reform movements such as vegetarianism, light therapy, sex, and eugenics. While health reform movements were a product of the modern world in which science and rationality were given preference, Kellogg infused his religious, Seventh-day Adventist beliefs into the reforms he practiced. In some cases health reform movements were previously semi-religious in nature and Kellogg merely accentuated an already present narrative of religious obligation for reform. These beliefs in salvific health reform centered around Kellogg’s desire to perfect the human body physically and spiritually in an attempt to make it fit for translation into heaven. -
