  • Ayn Rand? Ayn Rand Ayn
    Who Is Ayn Rand? Ayn Rand Few 20th century intellectuals have been as influential—and controversial— as the novelist and philosopher Ayn Rand. Her thinking still has a profound impact, particularly on those who come to it through her novels, Atlas Shrugged and The Fountainhead—with their core messages of individualism, self-worth, and the right to live without the impositions of others. Although ignored or scorned by some academics, traditionalists, pro- gressives, and public intellectuals, her thought remains a major influence on Ayn Rand many of the world’s leading legislators, policy advisers, economists, entre- preneurs, and investors. INTRODUCTION AN Why does Rand’s work remain so influential? Ayn Rand: An Introduction illuminates Rand’s importance, detailing her understanding of reality and human nature, and explores the ongoing fascination with and debates about her conclusions on knowledge, morality, politics, economics, government, AN INTRODUCTION public issues, aesthetics and literature. The book also places these in the context of her life and times, showing how revolutionary they were, and how they have influenced and continue to impact public policy debates.

  • Ronald Davis Oral History Collection on the Performing Arts
    Oral History Collection on the Performing Arts in America Southern Methodist University The Southern Methodist University Oral History Program was begun in 1972 and is part of the University’s DeGolyer Institute for American Studies. The goal is to gather primary source material for future writers and cultural historians on all branches of the performing arts- opera, ballet, the concert stage, theatre, films, radio, television, burlesque, vaudeville, popular music, jazz, the circus, and miscellaneous amateur and local productions. The Collection is particularly strong, however, in the areas of motion pictures and popular music and includes interviews with celebrated performers as well as a wide variety of behind-the-scenes personnel, several of whom are now deceased. Most interviews are biographical in nature although some are focused exclusively on a single topic of historical importance. The Program aims at balancing national developments with examples from local history. Interviews with members of the Dallas Little Theatre, therefore, serve to illustrate a nation-wide movement, while film exhibition across the country is exemplified by the Interstate Theater Circuit of Texas. The interviews have all been conducted by trained historians, who attempt to view artistic achievements against a broad social and cultural backdrop. Many of the persons interviewed, because of educational limitations or various extenuating circumstances, would never write down their experiences, and therefore valuable information on our nation’s cultural heritage would be lost if it were not for the S.M.U. Oral History Program. Interviewees are selected on the strength of (1) their contribution to the performing arts in America, (2) their unique position in a given art form, and (3) availability.

  • Interview with Mr. George Jaeger
    Library of Congress Interview with Mr. George Jaeger Association for Diplomatic Studies and Training Foreign Affairs Oral History Project GEORGE JAEGER Interviewed by: Robert Daniels Initial interview date: July 9, 2000 Copyright 2008 ADST Part I: A very lucky start! 1. From Vienna to Brooklyn and beyond. Q: Let's begin with personal background and the experiences that led you to a career in the Foreign Service, and then, more or less chronologically, go through your various assignments. JAEGER: I was born in Vienna in 1926, the son of Frederick Jaeger, a gifted art Professor and rather successful Austrian painter who exhibited among other galleries in Vienna's prestigious 'Sezession'. My mother Emilie was one of Vienna's early self-made women, who had become business manager of a now long-defunct shoe factory, a job to which she worked her way up through grit, resilience and intelligence from very modest beginnings. She married my father some time after his return from the Italian front in World War I where he had been an artillery Lieutenant in the Austrian-Italian standoff in the Dolomites, today's South Tirol. My parents were a warm, conscientious, caring people, who formed me and brought me up in our modest but, by the standards of the time, comfortable and sunny flat in Interview with Mr. George Jaeger http://www.loc.gov/item/mfdipbib001567 Library of Congress Vienna's 14th District. During summers, when my father had over two months' vacation - the happy lot of Viennese professors in those days! - we packed up paints, easels, books and mountain boots and went off to Carinthia or East Tirol - sometimes staying in local inns, sometimes in “Pensions” run by the village priest: Idyllic months, full of long, happy days of walking in the hills and mountains, swimming in ponds, or helping carry my father's painting gear - in what was still a very unspoiled, isolated peasant world, much closer to the 19th than the 20th century.

  • US Navy Relations with the British, Canadian, and Australian Navies, 1945–1953 DISSERTATION Presente
    We Are Still One Fleet: U.S. Navy Relations with the British, Canadian, and Australian Navies, 1945–1953 DISSERTATION Presented in Partial Fulfillment of the Requirements for the Degree Doctor of Philosophy in the Graduate School of The Ohio State University By Corbin Williamson Graduate Program in History The Ohio State University 2015 Dissertation Committee: Dr. John Guilmartin, Advisor Dr. Peter Mansoor Dr. Robert McMahon Dr. John Hattendorf Copyright by Corbin Williamson 2015 Abstract In the aftermath of World War II, the U.S. Navy broke with its traditional avoidance of peacetime alliances by building close ties with the British, Canadian, and Australian navies. This fundamental shift in American naval policy occurred between 1945 and 1953. Drawing upon their close connections with the U.S. Navy during the war, the British and Canadians in particular built a web of connections within the U.S. consisting of naval representatives in Washington as well as liaison and exchange officers. Beginning in late 1946 the British, Canadian, and American militaries agreed to standardize their procedures, doctrine, and equipment. However, the failed efforts to create a common sonobuoy showed that standardization of concepts would occur before standardization of weapon calibers. To that end the three navies wrote common communications and tactical publications that by 1952 allowed their ships to operate together on short notice. These publications were written by the Canada-United Kingdom-United States (CANUKUS) Anti-Submarine Warfare (ASW) Working Group, a hitherto little known organization that worked to standardize ASW doctrine and equipment between the three fleets. In addition, the British and American anti-submarine training schools, in Ireland and Key West respectively, began hosting visits by ASW ships and aircrafts from each other’s fleet beginning in 1947.
