  • Music and the American Civil War
    “LIBERTY’S GREAT AUXILIARY”: MUSIC AND THE AMERICAN CIVIL WAR by CHRISTIAN MCWHIRTER A DISSERTATION Submitted in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy in the Department of History in the Graduate School of The University of Alabama TUSCALOOSA, ALABAMA 2009 Copyright Christian McWhirter 2009 ALL RIGHTS RESERVED ABSTRACT Music was almost omnipresent during the American Civil War. Soldiers, civilians, and slaves listened to and performed popular songs almost constantly. The heightened political and emotional climate of the war created a need for Americans to express themselves in a variety of ways, and music was one of the best. It did not require a high level of literacy and it could be performed in groups to ensure that the ideas embedded in each song immediately reached a large audience. Previous studies of Civil War music have focused on the music itself. Historians and musicologists have examined the types of songs published during the war and considered how they reflected the popular mood of northerners and southerners. This study utilizes the letters, diaries, memoirs, and newspapers of the 1860s to delve deeper and determine what roles music played in Civil War America. This study begins by examining the explosion of professional and amateur music that accompanied the onset of the Civil War. Of the songs produced by this explosion, the most popular and resonant were those that addressed the political causes of the war and were adopted as the rallying cries of northerners and southerners. All classes of Americans used songs in a variety of ways, and this study specifically examines the role of music on the home-front, in the armies, and among African Americans.

  • Ten Thousand Dreams Interpreted / Gustavus Hindman Miller
    Ten Thousand Dreams Interpreted By Gustavus Hindman Miller Ten Thousand Dreams Interpreted - G.H.Miller PREFACE. "Dreams are rudiments of the great state to come.We dream what is about to happen.''--BAILEY, The Bible, as well as other great books of historical andrevealed religion, shows traces of a general and substantialbelief in dreams. Plato, Goethe, Shakespeare and Napoleonassigned to certain dreams prophetic value. Joseph saweleven stars of the Zodiac bow to himself, the twelfth star.The famine of Egypt was revealed by a vision of fat and lean cattle.The parents of Christ were warned of the cruel edict of Herod,and fled with the Divine Child into Egypt. Pilate's wife, through the influence of a dream, advised her husbandto have nothing to do with the conviction of Christ. But the grossmaterialism of the day laughed at dreams, as it echoed the voice andverdict of the multitude, "Crucify the Spirit, but let the flesh live.''Barabbas, the robber, was set at liberty. Ten Thousand Dreams Interpreted - G.H.Miller The ultimatum of all human decrees and wisdom is to gratifythe passions of the flesh at the expense of the spirit.The prophets and those who have stood nearest the fountainof universal knowledge used dreams with more frequency thanany other mode of divination. Profane, as well as sacred, history is threaded with incidentsof dream prophecy. Ancient history relates that Gennadiuswas convinced of the immortality of his soul by conversingwith an apparition in his dream. Through the dream of Cecilia Metella, the wife of a Consul, the Roman Senatewas induced to order the temple of Juno Sospita rebuilt.
