  • 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.

  • C:\Corruption\Bank Chartering Revision September 2004.Wpd
    Bank Chartering and Political Corruption in Antebellum New York: Free Banking as Reform Howard Bodenhorn Lafayette College and NBER bodenhoh @ lafayette.edu Revised April 2004 Current revision September 2004 Abstract: One traditional and oft-repeated explanation of the political impetus behind free banking connects the rise of Jacksonian populism and a rejection of the privileges associated with corporate chartering. A second views free banking as an ill-informed inflationist, pro-business response to the financial panic of 1837. This essay argues that both explanations are lacking. Free banking was the progeny of the corruption associated with bank chartering and reflected social, political and economic backlashes against corruption dating to the late-1810s. Three strands of political thought -- Antimasonic egalitarianism, Jacksonian pragmatism, and pro-business American Whiggism -- converged in the 1830s and led to economic reform. Equality of treatment was the political watchword of the 1830s and free banking was but one manifestation of this broader impulse. Prepared for NBER Conference on Corruption and Reform. I thank Lee Alston, Michael Bordo, Andrew Economopoulos, Ed Glaeser, Stephen Quinn, Hugh Rockoff, Jay Shambaugh, John Wallis, Eugene White, Robert E. Wright, as well as seminar participants at Rutgers University, NYU and the NBER for many useful comments and suggestions on earlier drafts. Special thanks go to Claudia Goldin who provided extensive and valuable comments. I thank Pam Bodenhorn for valuable research assistance. -1- “He saw in the system what he thought a most dangerous political engine, which might in the hands of bad men be used for bad purposes.”1 1.

  • The Genealogy of the Worthington Family
    929.2 W8996W 1264819 ^ OENEALOGY COLLECTION ^ ALLEN COUNTY PUBLIC LIBRARY 3 1833 00855 6349 THE GENEALOGY THE WORTHINGTON FflMILY, COMPILED KV GEORGE WORTHIXGTOX 1894. All the Worthingtoiis in America are believed to have descended from Nicholas, who came to New England in 1649, and from Capt. lohn, who is first known of in Maryland in 1675, and who died April 9, 1701, leaving several sons. Both, pi-obabh', descended from the Worthingtons of Lancashire, and such is the tradition of both families. In this genealogy will be found only those who are descended from Nicholas, and, as it is most probable that he belonged to the Shevington branch of the family of Worthington, of Worthing- " ton. County Lancashire, England, I have given the Herald's Visitations" of that branch down to 1650, at which time Nicholas was in New England. The origin of our name as given in the " Heraldic Journal, 1868," is Wearth-in-ton, from three Saxon words, meaning Farm-in-town. The old Hall at Worthington, where the family resided for seven hundred years, was recently pulled down. The Coat of Arms here given are those of the Worthingtons of Lancashire and Cheshire. While I have been exceedingly anxioiis to secure accuracy and completeness, many errors and omissions must necessarily occtir in a work of this kind. If all corrections and omissions, together with any additional records which may be in the possession of some hitherto uninterested member, or one who may not have received my "Genealogical Inquirj'," will be forwarded to the compiler, addressed to 775 Case avenue, Cleveland, Ohio, within the vear, it will be printed as an addition to the present records.

  • Building an Antislavery House: Political Abolitionists and the U.S
    Building an Antislavery House: Political Abolitionists and the U.S. Congress By Corey Michael Brooks A dissertation submitted in partial satisfaction of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy in History in the Graduate Division of the University of California, Berkeley Committee in Charge: Professor Robin L. Einhorn, Chair Professor David M. Henkin Professor Eric Schickler Fall 2010 Building an Antislavery House: Political Abolitionists and the U.S. Congress © 2010 By Corey Michael Brooks 1 Abstract Building an Antislavery House: Political Abolitionists and the U.S. Congress by Corey Michael Brooks Doctor of Philosophy in History University of California, Berkeley Professor Robin L. Einhorn, Chair This dissertation reintegrates abolitionism into the main currents of U.S. political history. Because of a bifurcation between studies of the American antislavery movement and political histories of the sectional conflict, modern scholars have drastically underestimated the significance of abolitionist political activism. Historians often characterize political abolitionists as naïve idealists or separatist moral purists, but I recast them as practical, effective politicians, who capitalized on rare openings in American political institutions to achieve outsized influence in the face of a robust two-party system. Third-party abolitionists shaped national debate far beyond their numbers and played central roles in the emergence of the Republican Party. Over the second half of the 1830s, political abolitionists devised the Slave Power concept, claiming that slaveholder control of the federal government endangered American democracy; this would later become the Republicans‘ most important appeal. Integrating this argument with an institutional analysis of the Second Party System, antislavery activists assailed the Whigs and Democrats—cross-sectional parties that incorporated antislavery voices while supporting proslavery policies—as beholden to the Slave Power.
