    CHAPTER FOUR THE CIVIC IMPACT OF RHETORIC As described in the previous chapter, Porter, Eliot, and Wilson’s commitments to public life are preliminary indications of how committed they were to civic education. However, public spirit only elucidates one dimension of civic education. If education is to be truly civic it must ensure that students not only learn to associate in public but that they also use this public association to engage in evaluative or normative conversation. Furthermore, civic education will be more likely to succeed in this regard if it convinces students that these normative evaluative conversations are aesthetically interesting and worth participating in. In this chapter I look at these normative and aesthetic dimensions of civic education. In particular, I ask two questions. First, did the educators’ actions and ideology inhibit political conversation by neglecting normative and evaluative issues? And secondly, did their actions serve to create a type of normative conversation that would be sufficiently interesting so as to draw students into the political arena? The theoretical problems in answering the first question are not insurmountable as long as some attention is paid to the amorphous boundary between fact and value, and description and prescription. As other historians of the social sciences have argued,1 the distinction between normative and non-normative scholarship is a legacy of the 1920's. Prior to this time, contemporaries understood the unveiling of factual truth as a process that would corroborate normative truths. Given that pre 1920 scholars had not yet begun to distinguish fact and value with as much assiduousness as later social scientists, one needs to be careful in describing the emphasis on fact or on objectivity, and the concurrent decline in moral philosophy courses that overtly dealt 1 Julie Reuben, Intellectual Transformation and the Marginalization of Morality (Chicago: University of Chicago, 1996) 176-210.

GOD AND SLAVERY IN AMERICA: FRANCIS WAYLAND AND THE EVANGELICAL CONSCIENCE by MATTHEW S. HILL Under the Direction of Dr. Wendy H. Venet ABSTRACT The work examines the antislavery writings of Francis Wayland (1796-1865). Wayland pastored churches in Boston and Providence, but he left his indelible mark as the fourth and twenty-eight year president of Brown University (1827-1855). The author of numerous works on moral science, economics, philosophy, education, and the Baptist denomination, his administration marked a transitional stage in the emergence of American colleges from a classically oriented curriculum to an educational philosophy based on science and modern languages. Wayland left an enduring legacy at Brown, but it was his antislavery writings that brought him the most notoriety and controversy. Developed throughout his writings, rather than systematically in a major work, his antislavery views were shaped and tested in the political and intellectual climate of the antebellum world in which he lived.

Livesay Committee Members, Thomas Dunlap Henry C. Schmidt Pamela Matthews Head of Department, Walter Buenger December 2005 Major Subject: History iii ABSTRACT The Perceived Power: Government and Taxation during the American Civil War. (December 2005) Jane Flaherty, B.A., Boston University; M.A., Texas A&M University Chair of Advisory Committee: Dr. Harold C. Livesay This dissertation examines how the internal revenue legislation enacted during the American Civil War fostered a new role for government in society. The delegates to the 1787 Constitutional Convention constructed a system of fiscal federalism for the United States. The national government relied on indirect taxes, particularly customs duties, as its primary source of revenue. Concurrently, the states developed an array of unique financing strategies, including taxing citizens directly. The dire need for war funds compelled this “unperceived” government to expand beyond the constraints imposed by this antebellum fiscal structure. Through my research, I found that the taxes imposed during the war represent an attempt to cope with a financial crisis, rather than impart a particular preconceived agenda.

That two such remarkable and well-known schools of higher learning even exist at all represents a story both stirring and complex that developed over the course of the early nineteenth century cumulating in the passage of the 1862 Morrill Land Grant Act.

  • MALE USE of a FEMALE PSEUDONYM in NINETEENTH-CENTURY BRITISH and AMERICAN LITERATURE Heather Anne Hannah
    MALE USE OF A FEMALE PSEUDONYM IN NINETEENTH-CENTURY BRITISH AND AMERICAN LITERATURE Heather Anne Hannah BA English and Comparative Literature BA Communication and Cultural Studies BA Philosophy BA History (Hons1) This thesis is presented for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy Murdoch University 2018 Declaration I declare that this thesis is my own account of my research. It contains as its main content work which has not previously been submitted for a degree at any tertiary education institution. Heather Anne Hannah ii Abstract During the nineteenth century, male writers in Britain and the United States of America used female pseudonyms much more frequently than is recognised today. The historically accepted understanding is that nineteenth- century women, not men, used cross-gender pseudonyms, a viewpoint commonly justified on the basis of presumed gender discrimination. However, previous historians and scholars have written very little about the male use of the female pseudonym in men’s authorship of literary genres. Drawing on theories of masculinity and its construction in specific historical contexts, my thesis shows why, between 1800 and 1919, increasing numbers of male writers in Britain and America authored texts under female pseudonyms, categorised by the genres of romantic fiction, juvenile literature, periodical contributions, and poetry. Histories of masculinity offer a context in which to consider how the cultural power of gendered expectations helps make sense of the male use of the female pseudonym. The insight – that male use of the female pseudonym is symptomatic of the limiting strictures of conventionally gendered boundaries in the social, professional and domestic realms – informs my thesis.
