[Approved, January 4, 1889, and amended July 3, 1957.] V1ll Background f I, f( ( The American Historical Association is a nonprofit membership corpo­ ration founded in 1884 and incorporated by Congress in 1889 for the ( promotion of historical studies, the collection and preservation of histor­ f ical manuscripts, and the dissemination of the fruits of historical research.· The association holds an annual meeting on December 28-:JO of each year, at which there are more than one hundred sessions on a wide range of topics including scholarly research, approaches to teaching, and pro­ fessional concerns.· Approximately two dozen affiliated societies meet I jointly with the AHA. Membership in the association brings with it the American Historical Review, AHA Perspectives, the Program of the annual meeting, and, l,I f upon request, the Annual Report, as well as the right to vote for l nominees for AHA offices. The annual membership fee is based on a I graduated scale according to income;joint and life memberships are also I, available. I The association's capital funds are managed by a board of trustees, but f much of the income from these funds is allocated to special purposes. For f , its broader educational activities, the association has to depend chiefly "( upon its membership dues. I. PUBLICATIONS ,1 The American Historical Review, published five times a year, is the \ major historicaljournal in the United States. It includes scholarly articles and critical reviews in all fields of history. AHA Perspectives, published J nine times a year, is the association's monthly newsletter. It contains articles and announcements of general interest to the profession, EIB classified advertising, and news of AHA activities. 1, I PROFESSIONAL ACTIVITIES 1 In February 1974 the membership ratified a new constitution, thereby ~i ~L creating three divisional committees-research, teaching, the pro- ~. I{ f A¥ERICAN HISTORICAL ASSOCIATION fession-which appropriately reflect the most significant concerns and activities of the association. Research. The association's long-standing interest in promoting histor­ ical scholarship continues. The AHR and the annual meeting provide forums for significant research in all fields of history. Through the Research Division the AHA also keeps a close watch on governmental policies affecting the ability of scholars to pursue research. The associa­ tion is frequently called upon to represent the views of the profession on legislation relating to freedom of information, declassification, and the right to privacy. With the revival of the Writings on American History, the association offers the most comprehensive and current bibliography of article-length literature available. A multivolume publication of article-length litera­ ture published during the gap between the old Writings and the new series has now been published. The AHA maintains a registry of dissertation topics in history and every six months publishes a list of doctoral dissertations either in progress or completed at American universities. Teaching. The new constitution mandates that the Teaching Division "collect and disseminate information about the training of teachers and about instructional techniques and materials and ... encourage excel­ lence in the teaching of history in the schools, colleges, and universities." Among other efforts advancing this objective, the association spopsors a series of regional teaching conferences across the' country that bring together historians from all levels of education. The AHA has become particularly active in the promotion of the teaching of women's history in secondary schools. Other projects relevant to teachers of history are in various stages of development. The association publishes a series of pamphlets to serve as aids to teachers and students of history. These pamphlets offer concise and readable essays that are at once narrative and critical. These essays summarize the most recent interpretations in specific areas of or approaches to history, and select, critical bibliographies are included. Profession. The constitution mandates that the Professional Division "collect and disseminate information about employment opportunities for all historians regardless of individual membership in the association." The division is especially concerned with the job crisis, alternative careers, and the rights of historians. The association solicits information on employment opportunities for historians and publishes job announcements in its monthly newsletter, 2 BACKGROUND AHA Perspectives. At each annual meeting, the AHA operates a Job Register for the posting of job announcements and the interviewing of candidates. Institutional Services Program. An Institutional Services Program has been inaugurated in order to expand AHA services to departments of history. The program combines some of the established AHA services and publications such as the Guide to Departments ofHistory, Directory of Women Historians, Grants and Fellowships ofInterest to Historians, Women's History: A Resource

  • Sicilian Americans Have Something to Say, in Sicilian
    Sicilian Americans Have Something to Say, in Sicilian Every Wednesday night, a small group of students gather for their language course at the Italian Charities of America Inc. in Flushing, Queens. Ironically, the students are not interested in learning Italian, but a separate language that arrived during the wave of Italian immigration to New York City. These students are the children and grandchildren of Sicilian immigrants. “We only write the phrases on the board in Sicilian, not in Italian, so that is what stays in our memories after class,” says Salvatore Cottone, teacher of the Sicilian language class. On the chalkboard, Cottone has written, “Dumani Marialena sinni va cu zitu.” If he were to compare it to Italian, it would say “Marialena andrà con il suo ragazzo.” It would not help the students to observe the ways that one language relates to the other; they are completely separate in form, construction, and syntax. Sicilian and Italian are both audibly and visibly diverse. To note a few examples, Sicilian uses different vowel sounds, relying on a long “u” rather than the “o” as in “trenu” (train) and “libbru” (book) instead of “treno” and “libro.” There is no future tense verb conjugation; instead, context words such as tomorrow, “dumani,” and later, “doppu,” are used to indicate that the action will take place in the future. The cadence and pronunciation of Sicilian also demonstrate obvious differences from the standard Italian. Scholars have found that Sicilian was the first written language in Italy after Latin. Declared by UNESCO as the first romance language of Europe, Sicilian contains a unique vocabulary of over 250,000 words.

  • Appendices Due to Concerns Over the Quality of the Data Collected
    APPENDIX A WSU 2014-19 STRATEGIC PLAN Appendix A: WSU Strategic Plan 2014-15 Strategic Plan 2014-2019 President Elson S. Floyd, Ph.D. Strategic Plan 2014-2019 Introduction The 2014-19 strategic plan builds on the previous five-year plan, recognizing the core values and broad mission of Washington State University. Goals and strategies were developed to achieve significant progress toward WSU’s aspiration of becoming one of the nation’s leading land-grant universities, preeminent in research and discovery, teaching, and engagement. The plan emphasizes the institution’s unique role as an accessible, approachable research institution that provides opportunities to an especially broad array of students while serving Washington state’s broad portfolio of social and economic needs. While providing exceptional leadership in traditional land-grant disciplines, Washington State University adds value as an integrative partner for problem solving due to its innovative focus on applications and its breadth of program excellence. The plan explicitly recognizes the dramatic changes in public funding that have occurred over the duration of the previous strategic plan, along with the need for greater institutional nimbleness, openness, and entrepreneurial activity that diversifies the University’s funding portfolio. In addition, the plan reaffirms WSU’s land-grant mission by focusing greater attention system-wide on increasing access to educational opportunity, responding to the needs of Washington state through research, instruction, and outreach, and contributing to economic development and public policy. While the new plan retains the four key themes of the previous plan, its two central foci include offering a truly transformative educational experience to undergraduate and graduate students and accelerating the development of a preeminent research portfolio.

Contact: [email protected] 1 Re-inventing Sicily in Italian-American Writing and Film “The history of Sicily is one of defeats: defeats of reason, defeats of reasonable men…. From that however comes skepticism, that is not, in effect, the acceptance of defeat, but a margin of security, of elasticity, through which the defeat, already expected, already rationalized, does not become definitive and mortal. Skepticism is healthy though. It is the best antidote to fanaticism” (6). Leonardo Sciascia Sicily as a Metaphor Sicily, the setting for many famous myths such as those we know from Homer’s The Odyssey, has proven to be equally fertile soil for the mythology of Italian Americans. With a literary tradition that goes back more than a thousand years, it would only be a matter of time before emigrants from Sicily, the Italian region that sent more emigrants than any other to the United States, would affect American literature. The offspring of Sicilian immigrants has created an eruption of writing that testifies to the power that the island has on the artists it creates. Through contemporary Sicilian American historians, memoirists, 2 fiction writers, poets and culinary aesthetes, Sicily is insured of passing along more to American culture than the Mafia and St.

  • Award-Winning Books
    Guide to the Minor Myers, Jr. Honors Collection September, 2005 Updated 2011 by Ryan Kaiser As intended from the initial stages of planning, the Bates & Merwin Reading Room is the crown jewel of The Ames Library. Given his central role in building The Ames Library and his high standards and hopes for the IWU community, it is fitting that the collection housed here is named in honor of President Minor Myers, jr., 17th president of Illinois Wesleyan, 1989 – 2003. Early in 2003 a call for proposals went out to Illinois Wesleyan faculty to submit ideas of what the collection should look like. Jim Plath, English department faculty member, submitted the winning proposal that called for the pinnacle of Ames Library to host books that had received honors in their respective disciplines from around the world. Professor Plath’s reasoning for proposing the Honors Collection is as follows: ▪ Illinois Wesleyan espouses the value that our students, faculty, staff, and alumni should aspire to be the best at what they do, and an honors collection celebrates both the best books in all fields and that important institutional value. ▪ A collection of this nature gives people access to the best books so neophytes to a field or discipline can steer automatically to books worth reading. ▪ Because an honors collection will span a huge number of topics and disciplines but also include international, popular, and small press materials, it will feature many books that should invite reading for pleasure. ▪ An honors collection featuring recent books will change from year to year and as a result the reading room will always have important potential to expose readers to new finds and discoveries through a never ending built in freshness.

  • Campanilismo Among Italian Americans: the Case of Sicilianness in Jerre Mangione’S Works
    Campanilismo among Italian Americans: The Case of Sicilianness in Jerre Mangione’s Works STEFANO LUCONI University of Genoa Proceeding of the AATI Conference in Palermo [Italy], June 28 – July 2, 2017. Section Literature. AATI Online Working Papers. ISSN: 2475-5427. All rights reserved by AATI. ABSTRACT: This short article is part of a work in progress and intends to exploit narrative sources in order to contribute to documenting the Sicilian experience in the United States in the wake of the mass arrivals from Italy at the turn of the twentieth century. It focuses in particular on the survival of campanilismo in the newcomers’ adoptive society. Specifically, this essay highlights historical evidence for the preservation of a regional or even a localistic identity among Sicilian immigrants in Rochester, New York, as they are portrayed in Jerre Mangione’s nonfictional writings, The analysis will concentrate primarily on two autobiographical books, Mount Allegro and An Ethnic at Large. Keywords: Jerre Mangione, campanilismo, Sicilian Americans, ethnic identity, Rochester The belated achievement of national political unification in Italy let most inhabitants of this country long retain a regional, provincial or even local sense of affiliation. Such an attitude is better known by the term campanilismo, after the Italian word for bell tower, and implies that people’s attachments were usually confined to their respective hometowns or, as the Italian expression indicates, within the earshot of the bells of their own villages (Manconi).1 These feelings were generally replicated among the immigrants who arrived in the United States from different places in Italy between the late nineteenth century and the closing of mass immigration to North America in the mid 1920s.
