NATIONALIZING THE DEAD: THE CONTESTED MAKING OF AN AMERICAN COMMEMORATIVE TRADITION FROM THE CIVIL WAR TO THE TO THE GREAT WAR by SHANNON T. BONTRAGER Under the Direction of Dr. Ian Christopher Fletcher ABSTRACT In recent years, scholars have emphasized the importance of collective memory in the making of national identity. Where does death fit into the collective memory of American identity, particularly in the economic and social chaos of the late nineteenth and early twentieth centuries? How did death shape the collective memory of American national identity in the midst of a pluralism brought on by immigration, civil and labor rights, and a transforming culture? On the one hand, the commemorations of public figures such as Ulysses S. Grant, William McKinley, and Theodore Roosevelt constructed an identity based on Anglo-Saxonism, American imperialism, and the ―Strenuous Life.‖ This was reflected in the burial of American soldiers of the Spanish American and Philippine American wars and the First World War.

  • THE GOVERNORS of ISABELA Republic of the Philippines
    Republic of the Philippines Province of Isabela ISABELA TOURISM OFFICE THE GOVERNORS OF ISABELA Philippine Copyright © 01 May 2017 In order to facilitate the work of the missionaries in the evangelization of the Cagayan Valley and upon the recommendation of Governor-General (1850-1853) Antonio de Urbiztondo y Eguía, a royal decree was issued by Queen Isabella II of Spain on May 1, 1856 during the administration of Governor-General (1854-1856) Manuel Crespo y Cebrián which created the province of Isabela. The new alcaldia consisted of the towns of Cabagan, Tumauini, Ilagan, Gamu, Calanusian, Cauayan, Angadanan, Camarag, Carig including Catalangan and Palanan. The new province was named Isabela de Luzon in honor of Her Royal Highness Queen Isabella II of Spain. “De Luzon” was added to distinguish the new province from the other Isabela localities in Spanish East Indies. The old pueblo of Ilagan became the capital of the new province. Primary sources, particularly Dominican archives, lack detailed names of alcaldia mayores serving the new province. The military campaign of February 1868, however, mentioned Don Gonzales Montero as the Spanish Isabela governor joining Bontoc and Lepanto Commandants in a huge military expedition spending 40 days subjugating settlements in the highlands of the Cordilleras which is now part of Ifugao province. On August 25, 1898, during the Philippine Revolution, General Daniel Mata Tria Tirona (1864-1939) was assigned by President Emilio Aguinaldo y Famy, in Cagayan and Isabela and was subsequently appointed as military governor of the two provinces. On September 1, 1898, Isabela last Spanish Governor, Don Jose Perez, left Ilagan at five o’clock in the morning with 11,368.58 pesos and retired his 35 guardia civils to Bayombong, Nueva Vizcaya upon learning that Tuguegarao in Cagayan was captured by the revolutionary forces led by General Tirona on August 31.

  • Timothy Marr1 DIASPORIC INTELLIGENCES in THE
    Mashriq & Mahjar 2, no. 1 (2014), 78-106 ISSN 2169-4435 Timothy Marr1 DIASPORIC INTELLIGENCES IN THE AMERICAN PHILIPPINE EMPIRE: THE TRANSNATIONAL CAREER OF DR. NAJEEB MITRY SALEEBY Abstract This article assesses the complex career of Najeeb Saleeby (1870-1935): a Lebanese Protestant physician who became naturalized as a U.S. citizen while serving the American colonial occupation of the Philippines. Saleeby was valued as a cultural intermediary whose facility with Arabic and Islam empowered his rise as the foremost American expert on the Muslim Moros of the southern Islands of Mindanao and Sulu. Saleeby’s story dramatizes the political advancement possible for an educated “Syrian” who aligned his mission with the American “duty” of teaching self-government to the Filipinos. However, his own background as a migrant from Asia and his sympathy for Moro history and Figure 1: Najib Saleeby culture raised unfair suspicions about his ultimate allegiance. Dr. Saleeby never settled in the United States but dedicated his whole career to the welfare of the Filipino peoples through his medical profession, his post-colonial advocacy for bilingual education, and his criticism of how imperialism compromised American democracy. INTRODUCTION In 2004 the meeting ground in the U.S. Embassy in Manila was dedicated the “Najeeb Saleeby Courtyard” in honor of a muhajir from Beirut who, after Timothy Marr is the Bowman and Gordon Gray Distinguished Term Associate Professor of American Studies, UNC Chapel Hill; Email: [email protected] Diasporic Intelligences 79 beginning the process of becoming naturalized as an American citizen, moved to the Philippines in 1901 under the auspices of the United States military occupation of the Islands.2 That Saleeby’s name was commemorated at the transcultural crossroads of U.S.

This principle, however imperfectly applied, is the basis of the sincere labor and willing sacrifice that have created the four books comprising the GREEN MOUNTAIN SERIES. In such a record of Vermont life and character and feeling not all moments are those to which the poet could have said: rrstay longer, thou art so beau­ tiful"; rt the little things, the beloved and tender and funny and familiar things" that trbeckon across gulfs of death and change with magic poignancy, the old things that our dead leaders and forefathers loved"-these have their valuable if humble place in such a record if it is to keep faith with the past. It is the hope of the editors that the four books in the Series may serve as interesting byways from Vennont' s past into Ver­ r;zont' s present and also may tend to throw some definite light, as reflected from verse, prose, and the lives of notable Vennont men and women, on the attitudes of mind and heart, faiths, be­ Jief s, and loyalties that woven together through the years have formed those traditional characteristics so generally associated with the state and its people.

Those journals were written with much unnecessary verbiage, frequent moral reflections and many underlinings intended to secure the attention of the reader. If a little of his style has crept into this book, it has been allowed to remain in the interest of unity and because it places a little emphasis upon the system of teaching by moral precept so prevalent in his day. FOREWORD The lives of great leaders are always written, and sometimes a too. eager pen may ascribe to them a glory which, in part at least, is but the reflected light of incon­ spicuous followe'ts. If we think of a nation as the expression of leader­ ship, we must also, and with even greater reason perhaps, think of it as the expression of those who have been led; since in these latter are the rugged qualities which give that nation individuality and character.
