Although Mrs. Ford will not attend the dinner, en route to the Kennedy Center arriving at the Washington Navy Yard around 7:50, she will board the yacht for a few minutes . .. at the conclusibn of their dinner and then she and the Queen and her husband will ride toget:,her to the Kennedy Center. Because the Queen is the hostess for the evening and Mrs. Ford' will be attending at her invitation, I would presume Mrs. Ford would ride in the Queen's car. I understand the ballet itself is long (3 hours). The Queen will host a reception following tee perfo:rmance in the Atrium of the Kennedy Center. Mrs. Ford, however, will not attend the reception. I understand Sue Davis (Ol 33~-57~4; H: 244-4652) will do the advance. ~·.,... -F .. -2- Queen Margrethe and Prince Henrik are visiting the United States to honor our Bicentennial year--from May 9th to June 1st.

Mrs. Ford has selected a spring garden theme, reflecting the Danish love of flowers. One of the favorite Danish flowers 1 freesia, will be featured in the table bouquets of iris, tulips, violets, lilies of the valley, miniature carnations, bachelor buttons and broom. These informal, free­ style bouquets of wild and cultivated flowers will be in baskets. Azaleas and roses in shades of red and white will decorate the foyer and the cross­ hall to honor the red and white of the Danish flag. The ficus trees on the State Floor will have ivy planted at the bases. Ivy will also be used around the napkins along with a spray of lilies of the valley. The round tables will be draped with tableclothes of yellow. Tables will be set with the Johnson china, the King Charles silver and Morgantown crystal. Flowers in the State Floor· 'Parlors will be matched to the historic period of the rooms. For example, urns will be filled with flowers in the Red Room in keeping with early 19th century custom. These decorations are patterned after pa~ntings from the era. Mrs. Jody Shoemaker of the Winthur Museum in Delaware and Ms. Jeanne Shanks of the Philadelphia Museum of Art have donated their personal .. :time to coordinate the decorations. Both specialize in historic flower arranging, which matches the flowers, containers and style of arrangement to the period of the room. Included among the guests are many Americans of Danish descent.

    Notes For complete author names, titles, and publication data for works cited here in short form, see the Works Cited list at the back of the book. Introduction 1. It is problematic to use the term “emperor” to describe the monarch throughout most of Japanese history. As Joan R. Piggott reminds us in The Emergence of Japanese Kingship, “The term empire is strongly associated with a martial political formation founded on conquest” (8). For most of Japanese history, Japanese monarchs did not preside over empires. The monarchs of Imperial Japan (1890–1945)did rule over an empire that came to include numerous overseas possessions, however. In the case of Hirohito (r. 1926–89), he ascended to the throne as the sovereign of an empire, and thus the term “emperor” is an appropriate title for him for the period from 1926 to 1945. Strictly speaking, the term “emperor” does not describe Japan’s monarch since 1945, for Japan no longer has an empire and the monarch does not even remain sovereign. In the end, however, I decided to use the term “emperor” (as well as terms such as “monarch”) for the postwar period in part because it seemed confusing to switch back and forth between “emperor” for the prewar period and, say, “king” for the postwar period, and also because it served to highlight one of the most important transwar continuities regarding the Japanese throne: Hirohito, who ascended to the throne with the mindset of a sovereign emperor, remained on the throne even as the Japanese empire collapsed and the politico-legal system defining his position underwent sweeping reform.

  • JOHN FOSTER DULLES PAPERS PERSONNEL SERIES The
    JOHN FOSTER DULLES PAPERS PERSONNEL SERIES The Personnel Series, consisting of approximately 17,900 pages, is comprised of three subseries, an alphabetically arranged Chiefs of Mission Subseries, an alphabetically arranged Special Liaison Staff Subseries and a Chronological Subseries. The entire series focuses on appointments and evaluations of ambassadors and other foreign service personnel and consideration of political appointees for various posts. The series is an important source of information on the staffing of foreign service posts with African- Americans, Jews, women, and individuals representing various political constituencies. Frank assessments of the performances of many chiefs of mission are found here, especially in the Chiefs of Mission Subseries and much of the series reflects input sought and obtained by Secretary Dulles from his staff concerning the political suitability of ambassadors currently serving as well as numerous potential appointees. While the emphasis is on personalities and politics, information on U.S. relations with various foreign countries can be found in this series. The Chiefs of Mission Subseries totals approximately 1,800 pages and contains candid assessments of U.S. ambassadors to certain countries, lists of chiefs of missions and indications of which ones were to be changed, biographical data, materials re controversial individuals such as John Paton Davies, Julius Holmes, Wolf Ladejinsky, Jesse Locker, William D. Pawley, and others, memoranda regarding Leonard Hall and political patronage, procedures for selecting career and political candidates for positions, discussions of “most urgent problems” for ambassadorships in certain countries, consideration of African-American appointees, comments on certain individuals’ connections to Truman Administration, and lists of personnel in Secretary of State’s office.

    Tudors to Windsors: British Royal Portraits 16 March – 14 July Chris Levine, Queen Elizabeth II (Lightness of being), 2007 National Portrait Gallery, London • Founded in 1856, the National Portrait Gallery was the first gallery established exclusively for displaying portraiture. The Gallery’s collection includes a wide variety of works such as painting, sculpture, photography, prints and caricatures. Tudors to Windsors is the first time the NPG has toured their outstanding collection of royal portraiture. Bendigo Art Gallery has collaborated with the National Portrait Gallery on several occasions but this is by far the most extensive exhibition the NPG has ever sent to Australia and Bendigo Art Gallery is one of only two venues in the world, the other being Houston, Texas. The exhibition traces many of the major events in British history, examining the ways in which royal portraits were impacted by both the personalities of individual monarchs and wider historical change. The exhibition explores five royal dynasties, from the Tudors to the Windsors, and includes works by many of the most important artists to have worked in Britain. • Alongside the works of art from the National Portrait Gallery, Bendigo Art Gallery has secured some additional loans to further explain the lives of these fascinating characters. Special loans from the Royal Armouries and Historic Royal Palaces add a further dimension to this exhibition. 1483-1603 Above after Titian, Philip II, king of Spain 1555, oil on panel Right after Hans Holbein the younger King Henry VIII, c.1540s, oil on wood panel Art Gallery of South Australia, Adelaide • The Tudors are one of the most famous royal dynasties in the world.
