  • The Second Raid on Harpers Ferry, July 29, 1899
    THE SECOND RAID ON HARPERS FERRY, JULY 29, 1899: THE OTHER BODIES THAT LAY A'MOULDERING IN THEIR GRAVES Gordon L. Iseminger University of North Dakota he first raid on Harpers Ferry, launched by John Brown and twenty-one men on October 16, 1859, ended in failure. The sec- ond raid on Harpers Ferry, a signal success and the subject of this article, was carried out by three men on July 29, 1899.' Many people have heard of the first raid and are aware of its significance in our nation's history. Perhaps as many are familiar with the words and tune of "John Brown's Body," the song that became popular in the North shortly after Brown was hanged in 1859 and that memorialized him as a martyr for the abolitionist cause. Few people have heard about the second raid on Harpers Ferry. Nor do many know why the raid was carried out, and why it, too, reflects significantly on American history. Bordering Virginia, where Harpers Ferry was located, Pennsylvania and Maryland figured in both the first and second raids. The abolitionist movement was strong in Pennsylvania, and Brown had many supporters among its members.

  • The Rhetorical Vision of Women's Clubs in American
    View metadata, citation and similar papers at core.ac.uk brought to you by CORE provided by Digital Repository at the University of Maryland ABSTRACT Title of dissertation: “THE WORLD, OUR HOME”: THE RHETORICAL VISION OF WOMEN’S CLUBS IN AMERICAN LITERATURE, 1870-1920 Amy Laurel Hobbs, Doctor of Philosophy, 2005 Dissertation directed by: Professor Martha Nell Smith Department of English Led by journalist J. C. Croly, writer Julia Ward Howe, and settlement house leader Jane Addams, the General Federation of Women’s Clubs (GFWC) encouraged housewives to lobby for local reform, and, ultimately, national suffrage, under the banner of municipal housekeeping. The rhetoric of this all-female organization is an important, yet overlooked, context to what literary critic Elizabeth Ammons has identified as the renaissance of American women’s literature that occurred during the Progressive Era. Ammons names seventeen women, writing between 1870 and 1930, whose work now stands at the heart of the canon of American literature, including Charlotte Perkins Gilman, Kate Chopin, Sarah Orne Jewett, Willa Cather, and Mary Austin. These five women had an intimate acquaintance with women’s clubs. Placing their writing in the context of club rhetoric demonstrates how women used a particular set of tropes and themes to probe a central political debate of the Progressive Era: the “Woman Question.” The women’s club movement developed a stirring, feminine rhetoric to justify women’s place in public life. Women writers used club discourse as raw material for fashioning their own theories about gender. For the past twenty years, historians and scholars in women’s studies, such as Karen Blair, Anne Firor Scott, and Deborah Gray White, have emphasized the political importance of the women’s club movement.

I argue that the gay and lesbian novel has a much longer history, which I trace by considering the literary circulation of homosexual types—types that through course of the nineteenth century accrete more and more language to themselves while also generating new abstract terms to describe same-sex sexual sociability. Eighteenth-century literature was sparsely populated by minor characters or fleeting episodes of desire expressed between members of the same sex. By the end of the nineteenth century, minor characters evolve into protagonists and their episodic encounters are either multiplied or developed into novel-length narratives with the texture of entire worlds. “Getting Around” thus takes as its focus the development not just of queer characters or subjects, but of queer protagonists and complete narrative worlds in which those protagonists make sense. ii My chapters focus both on the ways authors respond to the language of sexual types in other texts and on the ways other texts respond to them as they continue to circulate.

    Scribbling Women as Entrepreneurs: Kate Field (1838-96) and Charlotte Smith (1840-1917) Autumn Stanley Institutefor HistoricalStudy Berkeley,California Two women outwardlymore different than Mary Katherine Keemle Field andCharlotte Odlum Smith can hardly be imagined.Kate wasstrikingly attractive--oftencalled "bonny Kate Field." Charlotte, though not unattractive, wassimply never spoken of in suchterms. • Kate Field wasby somelights a childof privilege. Thoughher family wasnot wealthy,as the only childshe was much indulged, given the best St. Louis schooling.A wealthyaunt and unclegave her further schoolingin Bostonand took her to Europe for two years. The Odlums,by contrast,had sevenchildren, three of whom died in infancy[25, A]. Charlotte'sown poor health reportedlyinterrupted her schooling[15, p. 756]. WhateverCharlotte's father, Richard Odium, did for a living,it evidentlydid not suffice,for CatherineOdium was obliged to keep boarders[24a, b; 1; 2]. At Richard'sdeath, Charlotte became the "manof the family"at age 16. IKatewas petite, "very slender and graceful, with a wealth of chestnut hair falling in clustering curls,...faircomplexion and luminousblue eyes"[29, 37]. Many men, includingsome famous literarynames, fell in lovewith her or foundthemselves charmed. Biographical information on Field,where not specificallyreferenced, comes from References29, 8, and (variousissues of) 6. Charlottewas tall and, thoughattractive as a younggirl [25, Kirby and Lee depositions], became focused on her reforms to the exclusion of worries about attractiveness to men.

    gary scharnhorst “ I Wish to Know More About the Islands”: Kate Field in Hawaii, 1895–1896 Though she is virtually unknown today, Kate Field (1838 –1896) was “one of the best-known women in America” during her life, according to her obituary in the New York Tribune.1 A member of the expatri- ate community in Florence, Italy in the late 1850s, she befriended the Brownings, the Trollopes, and Walter Savage Landor while she was still in short dresses. One of the fi rst women to contribute to the Atlantic Monthly, she covered the eastern leg of Charles Dickens’ fi nal speaking tour of the U.S. for the New York Tribune in 1867–68. A popular lecturer and prolifi c writer, author of the best-selling travel books Hap -Hazard (1873) and Ten Days in Spain (1874), she was also the model for the character of the journalist Henrietta Stackpole in Henry James’ novel The Portrait of a Lady (1881).2 More to the point, Field traveled to Hawai‘i on assignment for the Chicago Times-Herald in November 1895 ostensibly to “study” the question of annexation. Her 33 columns from O‘ahu over the next four months, particularly her interview with President Sanford Dole, were widely quoted across the U.S. Unfortunately, their historical importance has never been recognized. In effect, they offer a series of snapshots of the short-lived Gary Scharnhorst is Distinguished Professor of English at the University of New Mexico.

  • Literary Retrospectives: the 1890S and the Reconstruction of American Literary History
    Literary Retrospectives: The 1890s and the Reconstruction of American Literary History DISSERTATION Presented in Partial Fulfillment of the Requirements for the Degree Doctor of Philosophy in the Graduate School of The Ohio State University By Karin L. Hooks Graduate Program in English The Ohio State University 2012 Dissertation Committee: Elizabeth Renker, Advisor Steven S. Fink Andrea N. Williams Copyright by Karin L. Hooks 2012 Abstract This dissertation proposes that the 1890s were critical to the formation of American literature because of their focus on identifying, collecting, and preserving an American literary tradition. Since 1930, when Fred Lewis Pattee claimed that the twentieth century began in the 1890s, a continuing strain in literary criticism has investigated the decade as the birthplace of modernism. In recent years, however, scholars have begun troubling these historical assessments of the era in order to recover a more nuanced understanding of the decade. Building on their work, I study how competing narratives of American literature existed in the 1890s alongside the fin de siècle movement toward literary nationalism. I recover a group of long-lost literary historians who envisioned a more inclusive American literary canon than was eventually adopted in the early years of the twentieth century. I use the term “scenes of negotiation” to refer to discussions of American literature in late nineteenth-century social discourse about the development of a national American literary tradition. More specifically, I argue that these scenes of negotiation can be read as literary history because no fixed narrative of American literature yet existed. These scenes of negotiation make discernible how accounts of literary history emerged at multiple sites, in multiple genres, through multiple agents.
