  • Denying Genocide: “America's” Mythology of Nation, the Alamo
    Denying Genocide: “America’s” Mythology of Nation, The Alamo, and the Historiography of Denial by Robert Anthony Soza A dissertation submitted in partial satisfaction of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy in Ethnic Studies in the Graduate Division of the University of California, Berkeley Committee in charge: Professor Patricia Penn Hilden, Chair Professor Ula Taylor Professor José David Saldívar Professor Paul Thomas Fall 2010 Denying Genocide: “America’s” Mythology of Nation, The Alamo, and the Historiography of Denial © 2010 by Robert Anthony Soza Soza 1 Abstract Denying Genocide: “America’s” Mythology of Nation, The Alamo, and the Historiography of Denial by Robert Anthony Soza Doctor of Philosophy in Ethnic Studies University of California, Berkeley Professor Patricia Penn Hilden, Chair History, the adage goes, is written by the victors. As a result, history represents the values, ideologies, and most importantly for this dissertation, the remembrances of the victorious. Their remembrances never remain ethereal or disembodied; they become the object lessons about the past for those living in the present. And these object lessons, the lessons of history, become the narratives and locations that transmit a nation’s idealized values and origin stories. It is in this confluence of remembrances, object lessons, values and origin stories that this dissertation examines in the Alamo. The Alamo represents a consummate site of memory for the United States. As a cultural narrative it persists from a mid-nineteenth century battlefield through the present day as a cinematic narrative. The Alamo is one of the historical watershed moments of the Westward expansion. However, the tales of the victors (ironically, in this case, the victors at the Alamo are the Euro- Americans who died in the battle) transmit values, lessons and stories steeped in narratives of denial.

  • Tricentennial Chronology and the Founding Events in the History of San Antonio and Bexar County
    Tricentennial Chronology And The Founding Events In The History of San Antonio And Bexar County by Robert Garcia Jr. Hector J. Cardenas and Dr. Amy Jo Baker San Antonio, Texas March 2018 i i Tricentennial Chronology And The Founding Events In The History of San Antonio And Bexar County By Robert Garcia Jr. Hector J. Cardenas and Dr. Amy Jo Baker Published by Paso de la Conquista San Antonio, Texas Mar. 2018 i Library of Congress Control Number: 2018934169 Published: Feb, 2018 San Antonio, Texas Copyright Pending. Outside Cover of Mission San José: public domain ii Introduction In 2015, San Antonio’s Tricentennial Commission created the opportunity for the citizens of San Antonio to rediscover their shared cultural heritage, history and to celebrate the 300th anniversary of the founding of our beloved City in 1718. Collaboratives were formed with public institutions to further develop presentations commemorating our City’s history. Many months were spent on these projects and in the year 2018, they will be presented to the public in open venues. An out-come of this year’s celebration is this publication, “Tricentennial Chronology and The Founding Events In The History of San Antonio And Bexar County”. The last published chronology of San Antonio was in 1950 by Edward Hunsinger. For this new study, approximately 1½ years was spent developing additional details and entries of events in San Antonio’s 300-year history. Other chronologies were studied, books were referenced and honored historians were consulted. Every attempt was made to edit and re-edit the many editions of the chronology until this latest edition is being published.
