  • William Walton, Whiteman Brothers, and the Warren Glass Works
    William Walton, Whiteman Brothers, and the Warren Glass Works Pete Schulz, Bill Lockhart, Carol Serr, and Bill Lindsey [Most of this study was originally published as Schulz et al. (2006)] The history of the Warren Glass Works exemplifies the shifting partnerships, fuel supply problems, and migratory locations so common in the 19th century glass industry. Although the company became an important early producer of milk bottles located in Maryland, its origins lay in the druggists’ glassware trade in New York City. Histories Walton’s Druggists’ Glass Works, New York City (ca. 1862-1876) William N. Walton began advertising his new invention in July 1862, although his patent for recessed panel shelf bottles (see patent section below) was not issued until September. He claimed that his business was the “original and sole manufacturers” of glass labels for druggists’ bottles. Walton had previously been employed as a glass cutter at New York’s Patent Glass Lettering Co. and operated a crockery and glass store in Newark (Griffenhagen & Bogard 1999:63-64). By early 1865, Walton was a manufacturer and dealer in “druggists’ and other glass ware,” located on John Street, advertising the same recessed panel shelf bottles that he had patented in 1862. By May of 1865, he had formed Walton’s Druggists’ Glass Works with a warehouse on Pearl Street, although “Walton & Harris,” still located on John Street, were noted in the same advertisement as “manufacturers of cut glass, glass letters and numerals, for windows and doors.” This was presumably the factory. The wording suggests that the bottles and other glassware, made in green and flint glass as well as porcelain, were actually made by other factories – with only the glass labels and engraving being made and applied by Walton & Harris.

  • Musical Culture and the Modernist Writer
    SUBLIME NOISE: MUSICAL CULTURE AND THE MODERNIST WRITER By Joshua Benjamin Epstein Dissertation Submitted to the Faculty of the Graduate School of Vanderbilt University in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of DOCTOR OF PHILOSOPHY in ENGLISH December, 2008 Nashville, Tennessee Approved: Professor Mark Wollaeger Professor Carolyn Dever Professor Joy Calico Professor Jonathan Neufeld ACKNOWLEDGMENTS First thanks go to the members of my incomparable dissertation committee. Mark Wollaeger's perceptive critiques and (somehow) relentless optimism have been deeply appreciated, and Carolyn Dever's clarifying questions and sound advice have proven invaluable. As teachers, mentors, and readers of my work, Mark and Carolyn have been models of professionalism and generosity since I first arrived at Vanderbilt. Joy Calico's near-omniscience and keen critical eye have aided this project from its inception, and she has graciously tolerated my encroachment on her disciplinary terrain. Jonathan Neufeld has in many ways helped me grapple with the complex philosophical issues at stake (more complex than I had imagined!). To all four, I extend my sincere gratitude. My research has been funded by a grant from the College of Arts and Sciences; by the Robert Manson Myers Graduate Award in English; and by a year-long fellowship at Vanderbilt's Robert Penn Warren Center for the Humanities. Mona Frederick, Galyn Martin, and Sarah Nobles have worked tirelessly to make the Warren Center a pleasant and intellectually vibrant environment, and while a fellow there I benefited greatly from the collegiality and wisdom of Michael Callaghan, Megan Moran, George Sanders, Nicole Seymour, David Solodkow, and Heather Talley.

    INFORMATION TO USERS This material was produced from a microfilm copy o f the original document. While the most advanced technological means to photograph and reproduce this document have been used, the quality is heavily dependent upon the quality of die original submitted. The following explanation of techniques is provided to help you understand markings or patterns which may appear on this reproduction. 1.Tha sign or "?c.,§€t" for pages apparently lacking from the document photographed is "Mining Page(s)". If it was possible to obtain the missing page(s) or section, they are spliced into the film along with adjacent pages. This may have necessitated cutting thru an image and duplicating adjacent pages to insure you complete continuity. 2. When an image on the film is obliterated with a large round black mark, it is an indication that the photographer suspected that the copy may have moved during exposure and thus cause a blurred image. Youa will find good image of the page in the adjacent frame. 3. When a map, drawing or chart, etc., was part of the material being photographed the photographer followed a definite method in "sectioning" the material. I t is customary to begin photoing at the upper left hand corner of a large sheet and to continue photoing from left to right in equal sections with a small overlap. If necessary, sectioning is continued again — beginning below the first row and continuing on until complete. 4. The majority of users indicate that the textual content is of greatest value, however, a somewhat higher quality reproduction could be made from "photographs" if essential to the understanding of the dissertation.

  • JACQUELINE KENNEDY and the POLITICS of POPULARITY by COURTNEY CAUDLE TRAVERS DISSERTATION Submitted in Partial Fulfillment of Th
    JACQUELINE KENNEDY AND THE POLITICS OF POPULARITY BY COURTNEY CAUDLE TRAVERS DISSERTATION Submitted in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy in Communication in the Graduate College of the University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign, 2015 Urbana, Illinois Doctoral Committee: Associate Professor John Murphy, Chair Associate Professor Cara Finnegan Associate Professor Ned O’Gorman Associate Professor Jennifer Greenhill Associate Professor Pat Gill Abstract Although her role as first lady marked the real beginning of the American public’s fascination with her, Jacqueline Kennedy’s celebrity status endured throughout her life. Dozens of books have sought to chronicle that mystique, hail her style, and commend her contribution to the youthful persona of the Kennedy administration. She seems to be an object ripe for rhetorical study; yet, for many communication scholars, Kennedy’s cultural iconicity diminishes her legacy as First Lady, and she remains an exemplar of political passivity. Her influence on the American public’s cultural and political imagination, however, demonstrates a need for scholars to assess with greater depth her development from First Lady to American icon in the early 1960s. Thus, this dissertation focuses on three case studies that analyze Jacqueline Kennedy’s image across different media: fashion spreads in Vogue magazine and Harper’s Bazaar published immediately after the inauguration in 1961; her televised tour of the White House broadcast in February 1962; and Andy Warhol’s 1964 Jackie prints, which drew from her construction of the Camelot myth after JFK’s funeral. These case studies seek to show how “icon” becomes an inventional and conceptual resource for the role of a modern first lady and how Kennedy’s shift to public icon in her own right (after and outside of her position as first lady) was mediated in nuanced ways that both reflected early Cold War (suburban) culture and shaped the larger institutional discourses of which she was part.
