  • Legends of the West
    1 This novel is dedicated to Vivian Towlerton For the memories of good times past 2 This novel was written mostly during the year 2010 CE whilst drinking the fair-trade coffee provided by the Caffé Vita and Sizizis coffee shops in Olympia, Washington Most of the research was conducted during the year 2010 CE upon the free Wi-Fi provided by the Caffé Vita and Sizizis coffee shops in Olympia, Washington. My thanks to management and staff. It was good. 3 Excerpt from Legends of the West: Spotted Tail said, “Now, let me tell you the worst thing about the Wasicu, and the hardest thing to understand: They do not understand choice...” This caused a murmur of consternation among the Lakota. Choice was choice. What was not there to not understand? Choice is the bedrock tenet of our very view of reality. The choices a person makes are quite literally what makes that person into who they are. Who else can tell you how to be you? One follows one’s own nature and one’s own inner voice; to us this is sacrosanct. You can choose between what makes life beautiful and what makes life ugly; you can choose whether to paint yourself in a certain manner or whether to wear something made of iron — or, as was the case with the famous Cheyenne warrior Roman Nose — you could choose to never so much as touch iron. In battle you choose whether you should charge the enemy first, join the main thrust of attack, or take off on your own and try to steal his horses.

From Pulp Hero to Superhero: Culture, Race, and Identity in American Popular Culture, 1900-1940 Adventure characters in the pulp magazines and comic books of the early twentieth century reflected development in the ongoing American fascination with heroic figures. 1 As the United States declared the frontier closed, established icons such as the cowboy became disconnected from everyday American experience and were supplanted by new popular adventure fantasies with heroes whose adventures stylized the struggle of the American everyman with a modern industrialized, heterogeneous world. The challenges posed by an urbanizing society to traditional masculinity, threatened to a weaken men’s physical and mental form and to disrupt the United States’ vigorous transformation from uncivilized frontier to modern society.2 Many middle-class social commentators embraced modern industrialization while warning against “sexless” reformers who sought to constrain modern society’s excesses through regulations design to prevent social exploitation, environmental spoilage, and urban disorder.
